What is PassivHaus? <\/span><\/h3><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

PassivHaus is an internationally recognised set of proven building and design principles that deliver the healthiest, all-year-round comfort living spaces, requiring ultra-low energy for heating or cooling.<\/p>\n

The principles are based on providing the highest standard in construction and energy performance. Clever design and site orientation ensure the home can take full advantage from solar gains in the winter and shade in the summer.<\/p>\n

Building a PassivHaus might cost more upfront, but these costs are quickly offset through the immediate savings in energy to run the home.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1579471930262{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;background-color: #32225e !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”ctabrochure”]<\/p>\n
