I attended your solar workshop at Holland College in Nov 2007. I am in the process of building this spring.

I had a question re Thermal Mass. The book on p.68 shows thermal storage capacity for brick, concrete, and stone. Could you tell me what the thermal storage capacity of porcelain vs ceramic vs slate flooring? Are they in the same category as brick or stone?

Thankyou, Monica Kilpatrick
