Design Principles

Key Passive House Design Principles For Queensland

The small extra cost incurred for a high-quality PassivHaus is very quickly overshadowed by the higher quality build structure, the required attention to detail, the very low ongoing running costs and the associated health benefits.

Waterproof and Airtight Envelope For Healthy Living

The airtight building envelope and high-quality mechanical ventilation systems result in total control over what enters the home. Dust, pollen, mould, chemicals, smoke, and maybe in the future viruses, can all be filtered out. In the event of power outages, the home remains habitable for longer periods than conventional homes.

High Thermal Insulation Values Creates Comfortable Homes

Thermal Wrapping Insulation is designed to wrap around the walls, roof and slab to regulate the temperature inside the home. Regardless of the weather outside, internal temperatures are consistent from floor to ceiling due to the appropriate insulation and mitigation of thermal bridging. A PassivHaus is less expensive to run, providing an assurance of long-term affordability.

Ventilation with Heat /Cool Recovery For Quality Fresh Air

Air ventilation systems are incorporated into the design to provide for quality airflow and a stable internal home temperature. The ventilation system silently delivers fresh, filtered air into every occupied space without creating drafts. The system also removes moisture, humidity and odours in stale air, extracting them from inside the home.

Thermal Bridge Free Construction Assures A Quality Build

PassivHaus Certified homes are designed so the building walls, floors, windows and shading work together to keep the home comfortable. The careful design and quality build provide a home that is easy to live in all year round. The efficiencies gained allow for energy savings up to 90% compared with typical existing buildings and over 75% compared with new constructions.

High-Performance Windows Provides Lifestyle Quality

Double-glazed or triple-glazed, low-E windows as well as doors that shut tight are specified to maintain the PassivHaus Airtightness standard. The result is a home that provides acoustic separation from the neighbours and street noises. Residual heat gain through the window glass is minimised, with insulation, careful sealing and high-performance windows working together to create a truly liveable home.
