Advantages of a Passive House

1. Extremely low heating costs.
2. Healthier living environment, with dust and pollen reduction, controlled humidity and free of mould and condensation.
3. High level of comfort – constant indoor temperature.
4. Greener and more environmentally friendly homes due to the huge reduction in CO2 emissions associated with space heating over the lifetime of the house.

Homeowners can also expect to enjoy reduced space heating demand by up to 75% compared to that of traditional construction techniques and even up to 90% compared to the current typical building stock.

CONCLUSION

Ultimately, our goal is to build spaces that help you experience the surroundings, instead of merely insulating you from them. It’s a result we believe can only be achieved by including everyone in the process—from the clients themselves, to architects, designers and contractors.

By listening, exchanging inspiring ideas, and being transparently honest, what might have been a sterile process becomes an enjoyable exercise in creativity. After all, your home will be more than a house—so it follows your contractor and designer needs to be more than just a contractor and a designer. At Innovative Home Solutions, we welcome that role, and have found that a fulfilling collaboration results in an exceptional home.
