PassivHaus / Passive House
PassivHaus or Passive House design and modelling allows us to predict the superior performance of your home, then provide you assurance through rigorous third-party verification. It provides a healthy and comfortable living environment for you and your family while also reducing your running costs by as much as 80%. Furthermore, there are the long term benefits of resilience, guaranteeing no internal condensation and reducing C02 output over the lifetime of the building. Comfortable, healthy, efficient, secure and quiet - it is the standard to which every home in New Zealand should be built.

Homestar
While Passive House certification primarily focuses on thermal and energy modelling and design, Homestar allows us to work with you on considering a much wider range of decisions when building. Homestar is an independent, national rating tool developed here in New Zealand by the New Zealand Green Building Council (NZGBC) and focusses on important areas of sustainable building such as; construction waste, water usage, sustainable materials, lighting, innovation and more.
Passive House certified homes automatically qualify for the energy performance criteria of Homestar, which means the two verification tools integrate and are complementary to each other.
Please contact us for more information about Homestar or refer to the Green Building Council website here.
