Description

The Wayne Turner house in Calhan, Colorado is one of White's passive-solar houses with Heat Exchanger Windows. The houses were designed to trap heat inside during the cold winter months, and shade the house from the sun in the hot summer moths. The Heat Exchanger Windows reflected the light and heat away in the summer, and drew in the warmth of the sun in the winter.
