PASSIVE HOUSE
Passive house is a voluntary standard for energy efficiency in a building, which reduces the buildings' ecological footprint. It results in ultra low energy buildings that require little energy for space heating or cooling. We are happy to work with SCHÜCO and Passive House to provide the following Passive House Institute certified components.
