@cvcev.bsky.social I may have missed it, but did you get a response to your open letter?

It's clearly a great place, but my only thought/concern is that you're 'preaching to the converted'. Isn't a lot of science about educating others, particularly those who are skeptical...?

Yep. Theirs was built by their local council and was tested and met all the passive house standards, yet they need electric heaters to keep them warm as, being elderly, they don't generate enough heat to recirculate.

That's really good to know. I do hope you'll be advocating for HEPA filters.

Is this about clean indoor air as well as clean outdoor air? We need good ventilation and filtration indoors to help mitigate the spread of airborne viruses and pathogens which, in turn, will help chronic conditions like asthma.

You're lucky. My parents live in a (rented) passive house and they're freezing! It's super-insulated but because there's only the two of them and they're in their late 70s they don't generate enough heat. As a result, their electric bill is v high because that's the only way they can heat the house.

Actually, just found it:

Thank you 🧡

I've already sent their fact sheet 👍🏻

I can't remember, but it was someone on the bird platform who made it available to be shared freely.

I'm currently in email conversation about this with my local ICS. I've had all the usual *following the guidelines* guff from them but I've called them out on two sections of it and awaiting a further response.

Lovely, thanks very much 👍

If you've got a spare code I know someone asking for one. Thanks
