The Passive House
Who We Are
Talk about passive house or building passive means to speak of construction and housing that must be kept in mind not only the needs of those who shall dwell, but also those of the planet in which we all live.
Discuss how much our way of living and producing, today, is dramatically impacting on global warming and on the conditions of the Earth is not enough. We need to do something more. Opt for the construction or renovation of a Passivhaus is a choice that pays off in many aspects: the economic and the ethical, in the first place; but also the one related to the comfort of life.
A passive house is a house that cancels or reduces to a minimum the dispersion of heat and that recovers thermal energy from the surrounding environment (sun, air, ...) and between the same walls of the home.
Living Comfort, energy savings and attention to the environment: these are the priorities for you, which, today, are you thinking about building a new home or renovation of an house pre-existing.
Passive house is the answer to all of your questions and your doubts.
