Passive Houses are "ordinary" houses with one distinction - they are anything but ordinary!Â
In winter they are comfortably warm and in summer pleasantly cool, they offer an extremely high level of comfort, with constant fresh, filtered air and low heating costs - this is how residents describe their passive houses.
Technically, passive houses are very energy-efficient houses, constructed according to certain construction standards (as defined by the Passive House Institute in Darmstadt, Germany).
The features of a passive house are a very well insulated exterior shell, isolated triple-glazed windows, passive use of solar energy through windows (passive energy input) and controlled ventilation of the living space using heat recovery.
The interplay of these components results in a highly efficient building with extremely low calorific requirements. Each room constantly receives fresh, filtered air through a controlled ventilation system. At the same time stale air is eliminated and up to 90% of space heat is recovered. The end product is a good living atmosphere with the highest levels of comfort around-the-clock. The minimal residual energy required is provided by optimal utilisation of natural resources such as sunlight, terrestrial heat and a small heating system.
With one of Schafferer's Passive Solid Wood Houses you will contribute significantly to the protection of the environment, save money due to low heating costs, and be able to enjoy your dream home. Additionally, Schafferer’s passive house is an ecological winner, as wood is a renewable resource.
