The maps below illustrate the difference in the design of houses in a cool and warm climate.
Overall, the most noticeable differences are the installation of the roof and the design of windows in the two climates. Notably, the insulation panels are arranged effectively, and the material used for the roofs is also chosen suitably.
It can be easily seen that a house in a cool climate has a high-angled roof, which allows the sun to increase the temperature. Moreover, only a window is constructed in the direction of the sun in a cool-climate house. Insulation and thermal building materials are used to reduce heat loss.
By contrast, the high-angled roof is replaced by roof overhangs for shade in warm climates, which prevents a lot to the house. Additionally, there are two windows in a warm-weather house. In the morning, the windows will be closed and covered to make the temperature cool as much and will be opened to suck air in at night. Finally, the workers set up the reflective material and external insulation to cool down the house in a warm climate.
