Re­sources for Every Step of the Pass­ive House Jour­ney
Wheth­er you're a pro­fes­sion­al, stu­dent, or simply curi­ous about Pass­ive House, this page brings to­geth­er es­sen­tial tools, free re­sources, tech­nic­al lit­er­at­ure, and e-learn­ing op­por­tun­it­ies. From design sup­port to in-depth know­ledge and train­ing, these ma­ter­i­als are here to help you plan, build, and un­der­stand high-per­form­ance build­ings with con­fid­ence.

Tools

Pass­ive House design re­volves around me­tic­u­lous plan­ning to cre­ate build­ings that are healthy, com­fort­able, and sus­tain­able. The key to achiev­ing these goals lies in the qual­ity of the build­ing en­vel­ope and vent­il­a­tion sys­tem. With the right ap­proach, a build­ing's per­form­ance can be ac­cur­ately pre­dicted be­fore con­struc­tion even be­gins. The tools ac­cess­ible via the page be­low are de­signed to stream­line and sim­pli­fy the design pro­cess.
