7 Benefits of Passive House
1
Health
Breathing in the sanctuary of your home will take on a different meaning, because you will literally be breathing in fresh oxygen-rich air. Imagine a home that breathes like a human body. The balanced energy recovery ventilation system is the lungs of the house: actively eliminating pollutants while drawing in fresh, filtered air and ensures a continuous flow of healthy, oxygen-rich air to every part of the home.
2
Comfort
Imagine a consistent temperature no matter where you are in your home, no more warm or cold spots. That’s what you can expect from a high performance building with triple pane doors and windows, super-insulation, continuous energy recovery ventilation system and thermal bridge-free design.
3
Quiet
Peace and quiet in the middle of urban Brooklyn? No problem in this building, with its insulated and high-performance walls, windows and doors that dramatically reduce sound transmission from outside (and your neighbors?)
4
No Unwanted Moisture or Odors
It’s hard to avoid all the odors that tend to accumulate in a multi-unit building. That’s not an issue here because the ventilation system sucks moisture and odors from kitchens and bathrooms and exhausts them to the outside, while continuously supplying filtered fresh air. The building’s airtight building envelope prevents outside moisture and odors from entering the building.
5
Reduced Allergens and Dust
Allergic to dust and other allergens? This home is your protective bubble with its continuous air barrier and energy recovery ventilation system that removes dust and allergens from incoming fresh air.
6
Durable
Passive House is simply a better quality building designed to last longer, requires lower maintenance and reduces the risks associated with new building construction.
7
Energy Efficient
Do you like to save money? With the solar panels, airtightness, continuous insulation, triple-paned doors & windows, energy recovery ventilation system and thermal bridge free design, you can expect your energy costs to be minimal.
No longer do you have to cringe every time the utility companies increase their rates. And it’s good for the planet too!
