Passive House and the Future
A Passive House is an energy efficient building with year-round comfort and good indoor environmental conditions without the use of active space heating or cooling systems.
A Passive House provieds very high level of thermal comfort and provision of whole-house even temperature.
The concept is based on minimising heat losses and maximising heat gains, thus enabling the use of simple building services.
Passive houses are light and bright due to large glazed areas designed to optimise solar gains, as well as healthy buildings in which to live and work due to fresh air supply through the ventilation system.
