A photo from our #passivehouse from today with NO heating in the house. It is -5C outside with snow, but sunny. It was -15C during the night. The thermometer reads 20C 😎 Passive house works! pic.twitter.com/DX7T924G8V

Beautiful winter morning, working from home, cold outside but mechanical heat recovery ventilation and tiny heat pump providing fresh warm air inside at 20C with CO2 levels around 500ppm, without opening windows, we really do need more #Passivhaus schools and workplaces. #Covid pic.twitter.com/03gQlUAa67

So exciting to see The American Institute of Architects (AIA) endorsing #Passivhaus as a reliable tool for meeting @Arch2030 commitments in their latest @blueprintforbetter guide. Together we must now support & accelerate performa…https://t.co/WOMxjfcDVs https://t.co/gq7yBtMHNl
