Why Passive House (Passivhaus)?
August 2019
The main reasons for using the Passive House (Passivhaus) low-energy voluntary building standard for a new build home, renovation, and/or extension are health, comfort, economics, and energy efficiency. One of the key strengths of this building standard is that studies have proven that the built performance closely matches the predictions of the PHPP modelling software, resulting in no performance gap. Thus, the software is accurate and takes the guesswork out of the design stage.
