Passive House design is built on five core principles that ensure maximum energy efficiency, comfort, and sustainability. These include continuous insulation, airtight construction, high-performance windows and doors, thermal bridge-free design, and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Together, these principles reduce energy consumption, enhance indoor air quality, and maintain consistent temperatures throughout the home.
At Zero Emissions Building Products, we work closely with passive house builders in Melbourne to provide the right materials and solutions that meet these standards. By incorporating these principles into every project, builders can create high-performance homes that are healthier, more comfortable, and significantly cheaper to run. Whether you’re building new or upgrading an existing property, choosing products that align with Passive House principles is a smart step towards a sustainable future.
