What is Passive House?

Passive House construction uses insulation, airtight construction, and smart ventilation to keep a building comfortable using very little energy. Rather than relying on a powerful heating or cooling system, a Passive House is designed to hold temperature naturally. The result is a home that stays warm in winter and cool in summer.
