Passive House, or Passivhaus, is the worlds fastest growing energy performance building standard.
The primary focus of the Passive House Standard is to greatly reduce the requirement for space heating and cooling within a building, whilst creating both excellent air quality and increased comfort levels.
It is important to note that Passive House does not dictate the design or external appearance of the building.
It is simply a method of calculating the amount of insulation, glazing, thermal mass, etc, to make the best use of passive solar gain.
