Passivhaus

Passivhaus is a building standard that simultaneously combines energy efficiency, occupancy comfort and cost effectiveness. But Passivhaus is more than just a low-energy building:

The Passivhaus standard allows for space heating and cooling related energy savings of up to 90% compared with typical building stock and over 75% compared to average new builds.

Passivhaus builds make efficient use of the sun, internal heat sources and heat recovery, rendering conventional heating systems unnecessary throughout even the coldest of winters. During warmer months, Passivhaus make use of passive cooling techniques such as strategic shading and ventilation to keep comfortably cool. These features are incredibly important in an academic setting to ensure indoor spaces are comfortable and the learning environments are optimised for both teachers and students.

Kawneer are able to offer a number of product solutions for the Education sector that help meet the Passivhaus standards.
