The location of a building's placement of window's and careful selection of materials can make the best use of "passive heating". it is basically the warming effect of the sun, passive heating will reduce your energy bills, as less energy is needed throughout the home

Passive solar heating systems harness solar energy through the design and orientation of a building's windows, walls, and materials to maximize heat absorption. Active solar heating systems use solar collectors, such as solar panels or thermal collectors, to capture solar radiation and convert it into heat for space heating or hot water.
Glass windows provide passive solar heating for buildings. Sunlight passes through the glass and is absorbed by surfaces in the building. It is transferred into heat energy, which is emitted as infrared radiation. This is reflected back into the building by the glass.
Dark floors are recommended for passive solar heating because they absorb more solar energy, which helps to warm up the space during the day. The absorbed heat is then radiated back into the room at night, contributing to maintaining a more consistent temperature. Light-colored floors reflect more solar radiation, which can hinder the heating process.
Passive Solar energy is energy that unlike Solar energy passive is not active it is used by which way your house is set up and it can be put a certain way to absorb the most of passive sun power

passive solar-heating system, and active solar-heating system are two types of heating system.. =D By: Wilfred Castro.
With south-facing glass, passive solar heat can be used in heating any home or building.
The two types of solar heating systems are active solar heating systems, which use pumps and fans to circulate air or fluid, and passive solar heating systems, which rely on building design and materials to capture and store heat from the sun.

Active Solar Heating and Passive solar Heating.
Passive solar heating systems harness solar energy through the design and orientation of a building's windows, walls, and materials to maximize heat absorption. Active solar heating systems use solar collectors, such as solar panels or thermal collectors, to capture solar radiation and convert it into heat for space heating or hot water.
well according to my research the active solar heating system captures solar radiation through mirrors and mirror plates. passive solar heating systems use the architectural design and construction material of a building.
Glass windows provide passive solar heating for buildings. Sunlight passes through the glass and is absorbed by surfaces in the building. It is transferred into heat energy, which is emitted as infrared radiation. This is reflected back into the building by the glass.
