TERRA VENT
0 Comment
TerraVent, a passive cooling system utilizing terracotta tiles, has a significant impact on enhancing thermal comfort and air quality in rural India. By harnessing the natural evaporative cooling properties of terracotta, it offers a sustainable and low-cost alternative to energy-intensive air conditioning systems. The system effectively reduces temperatures in enclosed spaces through the evaporation of water absorbed by the porous tiles, improving living conditions in hot climates. Additionally, TerraVent’s use of locally sourced materials promotes resource efficiency and minimizes environmental impact. Its simple design allows for easy implementation and maintenance, making it an accessible innovation for rural communities.
