Describes conservation measures for a new house which include the improvement of air tightness, insulation, passive solar gainand insulation of window systems. Also describes refitting an older house, reducing energy used to heat water and reducing electricity consumption. Gives a short list of sources of information. NOTES This is an updatedversion of the "Low energy passive solar handbook" abstract no.343.
