Who are we?
www.healthyheating.com
is a volunteer based not for profit educational resource
serving as a technical interpreter and consolidator of
academic research done within the building and health
sciences. Please see our list of
content contributors,
resources and sources.
www.healthyheating.com is not a manufacturer, it does not buy, sell or distribute equipment nor does
it do contracting.
How are we funded?
We offer a document for donation exchange, offer select pages for sponsorship opportunities and use
revenue from Google AdSense to support the operating costs of the site.
Contact us for details if you wish to help out by
sponsoring one or more pages with your logo placement, submitting content, or
making a financial donation.
Our Sole Purpose:
To offer a free research based education on using
building science with radiant based HVAC
systems as energy efficient solutions to indoor environmental complaints.
Our Number One Positioning Statement...
Homes owned by those approaching or already enjoying retirement should be designed as self contained residential healthcare centers starting with healthcare standards in heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
Our Top Five Snap Shot Visions - others
are developing…
We see the aging of a relatively wealthy North America
driving a change in indoor thermal comfort specifications.
We see a continuing decline of skilled
tradesmen in a rising demand for technology enhanced HVAC
systems during a period of demographic significance.
We see an integration of air and water
based systems to deliver both air quality and comfort quality
in our homes.
We see a evolution of combining technology
and systems into pre-engineered, preassembled, prepackaged
HVAC, which includes proven combustion and power generation
equipment.
We see healthyheating.com as being an
online educational leader and source of unbiased materials
contributing to the advancement of science based indoor
environmental quality systems.
Our Missions are many - here's
a few…
To educate consumers on the relationship
between our physiology (body), psychology (mind) and home
environments (spaces).
To bring public awareness to the otherwise
"obscure" codes, standards and guidelines available
to the homeowner for use in specifying home health, wellness,
and comfort systems.
To make unbiased fact based information including
architectural and mechanical design and specifications available
to consumers.
To reposition in the consumer mind, that
elements of architecture, particularly interior design and
HVAC must be repositioned as being part of the healthcare
industry instead of the construction industry.
Our Strategies…what we do...
We use our industry seminars to bring
awareness to the marketing of HVAC systems; particularly
the evolution of hybrid systems.
We support our missions with design seminars
through industry associations such as the
HHI,
RPA,
ASHRAE,
HRAI,
CIPH ,
AHAC,
ASID,
OAA,
AIA etc…
We use editorials in various magazines
to discuss industry related issues.
We use eBooks to distribute unbiased sound
information to help consumers, designers, manufacturers,
contractors and distributors deliver health, wellness and
comfort systems
We make available written specifications
and architectural and mechanical schematics, which can be
integrated into the clients building contracts.
We contract with influential clients to
develop missions, strategies, and tactics to fulfill those
purposes and visions, which we have in common.
Our Tactics…how we do
them...
We work with contractors, distributors,
engineers, and manufactures on site, in the field, or in
the classroom on how to look at the industry through the
feelings of an aging consumer who wants to tell us their
opinions…the body of a 20, 30 or 40 year old is not
the same as a 50 to 90 year old…seniors living within
building built for the youth isn't good business.
We train individuals on human physiology
and psychology to facilitate the communication between consumer
demands and construction deliverables…changes the industry
from "here's what you get" to "what does
your body need".
We reveal the content of "obscure"
codes, standards, and guidelines and make them understandable
to the public so individuals can play a greater role in
determining what they want to own as a health, wellness,
and comfort system in their home. ASHRAE Standard 55 has
been around for over a decade yet over 95% of the industry
is not aware of its existence.
We avoid, detour or debunk specific industry
status quo, which prevents consumers from living with improved
thermal environments. As one client said to us..."If I as an aging person am building
my last space by investing 15% of a construction contract
on my homes health, wellness and comfort system…shouldn't
I be able to talk with the mechanical contractor directly responsible
for creating my environment?" Makes perfect sense to us!
So we're here to help you talk with the right people at the
beginning of your project.
