			<![CDATA[I am currently using Energy Design Tools for u value calculations and condensation calculations.<br /><br />The calculations are ok and i have a reasonable grasp of using the program and its many flaws and glitches.<br /><br />I often have problems with interstitial condesation and am looking to get a better understanding and knowledge of the problems how to overcome them.<br /><br />I am also very interested in Passiv Haus and have looked into becoming a Passiv Haus designer but wish to gain more knowledge and a solid understanding of the basics before I pursue that avenue any further.<br /><br />Any help or links to teaching aids / tutorials etc would be great<br /><br /><br />Thanks in advance]]>

			<![CDATA[For condensation, get a copy of WUFI (there's a free version to start). There's lots of docs listed on their Literature page.<br /><br />For PH, buy a copy of PHPP. It comes with a manual that explains a lot, and there's various bits scattered around the web, but I think if you want to understand it deeply it's best to go on a course because there's lots of niggly details about how to use various bits.]]>

			<![CDATA[<blockquote ><cite >Posted By: Nick Parsons</cite>Guessing, Fudging and Hope? My local firm of statisticians......;)</blockquote>My mum really truly did work for Estate Agents named Doolittle and Daley. Oh, so it's true if Joiner says so - I did wonder. Mum's were in Chichester. She was putting all property details onto IBM punched cards - daft idea, didn't work, never will.]]>
