Passive House \u00a0stands for healthy, comfortable living and impressive energy efficiency, regardless of the regional climate. \u00a0Developed in Germany, the Passive House standard is the most stringent building energy standard in the world. \u00a0Buildings certified by the\u00a0Passivhaus Institut\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0use 80 percent less energy than conventional equivalent buildings.<\/p>\n

Simply, the Standard is a set of design principles and a quantifiable performance standard applied to any building\u00a0project, producing radically less energy needs, unparalleled comfort, and the most healthy indoor air quality.<\/p>\n

As a Certified Passive House Designer and LEED AP I am passionate about energy effcient design and construction.\u00a0Much of what we think of as super-insulating techniques are simply commonsense building methods carried out with an unusual degree of care and attention to detail.\u00a0\u00a0I appreciate that the performance of a certified Passive House is \u00a0scientifically defendable and evidence-based.<\/p>\n

The total total winter season utility bill for a Wisconsin Passive House could be less than $200! \u00a0I look forward to sharing the benefits of what a super energy efficient house can look like for you.<\/p>\n
