The Unglamorous Gospel of the Efficient Building
William H. Clark II is not interested in seducing you. Retrofitting for Energy Conservation arrives without metaphor, without narrative arc, without a single wasted flourish — and therein lies its peculiar authority. Clark writes for the facility manager who has stared too long at a utility bill, and he delivers: boilers, chillers, steam traps, and the quietly radical proposition that rigorous maintenance is itself a form of intelligence. In an era of green-washing and grand climate gestures, this book insists on the unglamorous work — the sealed penetration, the replaced ballast, the four-year payback. Discipline, it turns out, is its own ideology.
