The information obtained, concerning new residential construction in the United States is summarized and important differences between US and Swedish technology and construction methods for energy-efficient housing are pointed out. Selected building components for US housing are described and compared with corresponding Swedish techniques. The most important differences are: differences in ventilation strategies (almost all new Swedish houses have continuous mechanical ventilation); the airtightness of building envelopes; and wall construction and standard insulation practices. There are energy-efficient US houses especially in the colder parts of the country, that have the same features as the most energy-efficient houses in Sweden, but the variations from standard construction are much greater in the United States.
