Meeting the Passive House Standard
We provide support at key stages of construction to reduce risk and ensure your home is built the way we designed it – a high performance Net Zero Passive House.
Our focus is in the execution of the details including airtightness and thermal bridging. Phone and email support ensure high quality construction of the energy efficiency aspects of the design.
Support and inspections at key project milestones:
1. Laying subslab insulation and vapour barrier installation
2. Air-sealing exterior walls and penetrations
3. Installing and air-sealing of windows and doors
4. Electrical rough in
5. Mechanical rough in – Plumbing, Heating and Ventilation
6. Onsite blower door test(s) before insulation to confirm airtightness. Discuss corrective actions, if necessary.
