Passive House is the Future. Now.
What is a Passive House? Passive House is a set of design principles and efficiency standards that strictly regulate the amount of energy a building can use. Up to 90% less energy will be needed for heating and cooling and 75% less energy use overall.
Components include:
- Continuous insulation on all sides.
- Air-tight construction. High performance windows and doors.
- Constant filtered fresh air ventilation.
- Energy recovery from exhaust air.
- Careful detailing to eliminate “thermal bridge” energy leaks from design.
Our team will collaborate with you create a new high performance building, or dramatically upgrade the efficiency your existing building enclosure and mechanical systems. The results are a “Passive House” building design spec which reduces energy costs by 75% and creates luxurious quiet, comfortable interiors with unmatched air quality.
