The cooling effect of the wofati in hot weather is magnificent. I look forward to seeing how it performs this winter!
I am excited that someone will be wintering in the WOFATI. It is an interesting experiment, but one where a person cannot just throw in a weather monitoring station, and then see how it does, because life in a cabin produces a lot of heat. In a WOFATI, that adds up to a lot of potential.
I am kind of a weather geek, so it would be interesting to set up a small weather monitoring station and see how the WOFATI Performs. By that I mean, see how wind plays a role in how much heat it loses per day, or what the threshold is when the building begins to lose heat instead of gain it, etc. You kind of have to know the outside weather varibles to figure out why the WOFATI is thermally acting as it does. Of
course that is simply expressed a Degree Days, but it would be interesting to see how drastically less the degrees days are in a WOFATI.
