Choose the right materials and products for your passive house
Understanding what products and manufacturers suit passive house construction is key to achieving your project goals. Builders and homeowners must select materials that meet airtightness, insulation and energy efficiency requirements. They also need to meet regulatory and certification standards. Choosing the right windows, doors, ventilation systems and other components ensures the building performs as intended.
Researching product specifications and performance data helps avoid unnecessary costs and inefficiencies during construction. Engaging with suppliers and manufacturers at the right stage of a project prevents delays and ensures access to certified products. Designers and builders should coordinate with suppliers early to secure materials that align with passive house standards.
Clear communication with manufacturers helps confirm product suitability, installation requirements and compatibility with other building components. Establishing supplier relationships in the planning phase reduces the risk of material shortages and last-minute design adjustments. Read More
