Passive House Design Auckland
Passive design of buildings is a practice that utilises natural energy to heat, cool, ventilate, and light a building . Active design relies on mechanical heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems and internal lighting to produce the same results.
Commissioning the mechanical ventilation system (MVHR) in a Passive House building is a precise process and it's very important. It doesn't have the drama and excitement of the final blower door test … but it's just as essential to the building's energy efficiency and comfort.
