Description

Single family home over two floors, certified to Passivhaus Classic standard.

Thermodynamic simulation with DesignBuilder (EnergyPlus) was undertaken for the optimization of the thermal performance and analysis of summer overheating risk.

HVAC design included an air-source heat pump for heating, cooling and DHW production, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, and complete integration of all services with the Loxone home automation solution, including fingerprint access control and an innovative system to divert excess solar PV production in the summer months to an electric immersion heater in the DHW tank, providing all electric solar hot water production.
