Passive House (Passivhaus) and EnerPHit

Passive House is a building standard used to ensure that buildings are energy efficient, comfortable, and affordable to run. You may also see the term Passivhaus used, this is simply the German equivalent of Passive House, whilst EnerPHit is associated with refurbishment projects, using the principles of Passive House design, however by balancing the performance objective to work with existing buildings, and all of the challenges, that various building make-ups dictate.

 

The Passive House standard focuses on creating energy efficient homes and buildings, which are comfortable to live in and use without relying on things like central heating and air conditioning. Key components of a Passive House are high levels of insulation, airtightness and high performing windows and doors.

 

Whilst a house designed to EnerPHit standards will not meet the exacting standards of a Passive House, it will still deliver a considerably more energy efficient home costing less to run as well increasing the levels of comfort for the occupants throughout the year.

Benefits of Passive House Windows

Windows designed to Passive House standards significantly improve comfort, by preventing heat loss in the colder months. Buildings designed to Passive House standards are also designed to stay cool in the summer, by the careful positioning and size of windows and doors along with considering external elements such as shading.

 

By choosing Passive House standard windows you will reduce your reliance on heating, lowering your carbon footprint as well as saving money on energy bills.

Passive House Window Options

To achieve Passive House certification, in principal windows and doors must achieve a U value of 0.8W(m2/K) or lower.

 

With premium brands, frame choice configurations and over 350 different glass make-ups available to us, Infinite Windows and Doors some have some ranges that even exceed the standard laid down by the Passive House Institute achieving U values as low as 0.62W(m2/K).

 

If you are embarking on a Passive House or EnerPHit project, (no matter at what stage you are at) we offer an initial consultancy contract arrangement, where our consultation fee is 100% refundable against your main window and door order, once between us, we have everything in place to make the necessary factory order for you.

 

With so much to do, please tap into our expertise as early as possible and why not start by booking a showroom appointment with us, where we provide a calm and relaxed environment in which to explore all possibilities, share ideas, understand any technical drawings available and for us to showcase the fantastic brands that we represent.
