Alternatively, in hot weather, cool nighttime air can be drawn through the floors to chill them in a form of air conditioning. Barra's are said to have more uniform north-south temperature distributions than other passive solar houses[citation needed]. Many successful systems were built in Europe, but Barra seems fairly unknown elsewhere.. }
