Why Passive House?
The Passive House model provides a thoughtful and integrated design process and a detail oriented approach to construction that prioritizes a super-insulated, air-sealed envelope, natural light and solar heat gain through high performance triple pane windows, highly-efficient heating, cooling and fresh air supply systems, and minimal thermal bridges. This approach results in living spaces that are inherently more comfortable, durable, and consume dramatically less energy than a traditional home.
Passive House buildings achieve:
Up to 90% less energy usage
Healthy indoor air quality through filtered fresh air supply system
Consistent and comfortable room temperatures regardless of outdoor temperature.
Increased natural lighting
Quieter acoustic conditions due to deep, heavily insulated walls.
A more resilient and long lasting building
