Hosts: Chelsea Scharbach, Daniel Glauser, and Tim Hill
Every beautifully designed home contains systems that make it livable, comfortable, and efficient. In this episode, Tim Hill, Chelsea Scharbach, and Daniel Glauser pull back the curtain on these “invisible” systems and discuss the crucial role of early planning to allow systems to perform well and integrate seamlessly within the architecture.
From placing HVAC equipment in conditioned space to designing return air through slatted walls or perforated brick, this conversation is packed with real-world examples and lessons learned. They explore everything from duct routing and dehumidification to the aesthetics of thermostats, the coordination of control systems, and the rising demand for solar, battery, and generator infrastructure.
Whether you’re an architect, builder, designer, or homeowner planning a custom home, this episode makes a strong case for integrating your trades early. When MEP systems are considered from the start, you don’t have to choose between function and form, you can have both.
