THE #1 GUIDE TO THE BENEFITS OF A PASSIVHAUS DREAM HOMETM
The term Passivhaus refers to a German method of designing a very energy efficient and comfortable Eco Home. Developed by German Physicist Dr Wolfgang Feist.The method aims to ensure that predictable results to the performance of the property are achieved by meticulous design, rather than by accident. Most Eco properties are designed without this level of detail, and as a result the super-insulated properties do not perform properly in terms of energy efficiency, due to poor design, or lack of proper scrutiny of the build on site. They also prone to unpleasant consequences like extreme overheating, or poor ventilation as heat becomes trapped in, and is by heat from the sun.
Most of our customers are now very concerned about the environment and how they may do their bit to reduce their own impact on that. Of course there are other priorities to consider too, however when choosing a new property there is a big opportunity to tackle these concerns head on, and secure a fantastic and comfortable new property for your family.
If you are interested in developing property for sale or rent, the same is true. Passivhaus property has been shown to generate more demand among environmentally motivated buyers, and tenants are less likely to end up in fuel poverty.
The method can also be used to retrofit in existing properties, and to help to tackle the huge problem we have with very inefficient housing stock in the UK
