Passivhaus

Passivhaus Certified Builders in the UK

Passivhaus – or passive house – is a German standard for building construction. These principles provide a comfortable interior climate for a building’s occupants without the need for traditional heating systems or active cooling. Instead, heat is obtained from the sun, the people within, appliances and extracted air. Supplied air also acts as a heat source thanks to the building’s reduced heat losses.

At SCL Construction, our specialist team includes a certified Passivhaus tradesperson who can help your property or premises achieve the gold standard for energy efficiency.  For new-builds, this entails:

  • a heating demand of 15 kWh/m2.year or less
  • a heating load of 10W/m2 or less
  • a primary energy demand of 120 kWh/m2/year
  • an air change rate of no more than 0.6 air changes per hour at 50 Pa

The refurbishment standard requires:

  • a heating demand 25 kWh/m2.year or less
  • a heating load of 10W/m2 or less
  • a primary energy demand of 120 kWh/m2/year + heat load factor
  • an air change rate of no more than 1.0 air changes per hour at 50 Pa

Typically, work will include adding a substantial amount of insulation, fitting high performance windows and installing a mechanical ventilation system with highly efficient heat recovery.

Testimonials

The project went very smoothly and our grateful thanks to all involved who worked so hard and in a cooperative spirit to make it all happen. I would thoroughly recommend this company as our experience has been such a positive one.
- Heather and Andy Ganf, Shamrock
We were extremely pleased with the work carried out by SCL. The home gym meets all our needs and our new patio area looks amazing.
- Mrs Denne, Deepdene Avenue
The team did a really good job at our house re-modelling, refurbishment and extension. They were good value for money, competent and reliable in almost all works. Polite and friendly team, very accommodating around any neighbourhood issues which made for a smooth refurbishment over 6 months. Any snags were dealt with well and promptly. I would recommend them.
- Marcus Hoult, Aquarius
It has been a pleasure dealing with you all and we wish you all success in the future.
