[Darmstadt, Germany] Passive House buildings are particularly efficient buildings and are always a theme in any discussion relating to energy efficiency. What this building standard specifically entails can be experienced first-hand by everyone during the International Passive House Open Days in November. How low are the heating costs in a Passive House And what does better living comfort feel like From 10 - 12 November 2017, residents of Passive House buildings throughout the world will open their doors to the public. A list of buildings that are open for viewing can be found on the Internet.

Virtually non-existent heating costs

For a period of three days residents will be inviting the public to visit their Passive House buildings and learn more about this extremely energy-efficient building standard. Characteristic features of the Passive House Standard include an excellent level of thermal insulation, triple-glazed windows and a ventilation system with heat recovery, among other things. Due to these components, building owners can dispense of traditional heating systems even in Central European regions.


Building today for the future

For this reason, the costs for heating energy are negligibly small. Residents of Passive House buildings pay only a fraction of normal heating costs. Due to the low energy demand, Passive House buildings can also be combined well with renewable energy generation. With the Passive House Standard, buildings owners can meet the stipulations of the European Buildings Directive today, which specifies the nearly-zero energy standard for all new buildings from the year 2020.

Opening windows possible at any time
"Especially for those who want to build or renovate their homes, the Passive House Open Days are a
good opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and to experience for themselves the high level of living
comfort offered by these buildings. And occupants can demonstrate to other people that opening the
windows is also possible in a Passive House building", explains Sabine Stillfried of the Passivhaus
Informations-Gemeinschaft, which is organising the Passive House Open Days in cooperation with
Passivhaus Austria and the International Passive House Association (iPHA).
