Editorial Team

Keep your cool and achieve optimal summer comfort for your Passivhaus project, by accessing our on-demand training on avoiding overheating risks.

 

The Passivhaus standard addresses summer overheating, with the stringent criterion which requires that internal temperatures do not exceed 25ºC for more than 10% of the year. However, changing weather, variations in occupant behaviour and assumptions made during modelling can potentially increase the risk of overheating.

 

On-demand training course

Our short training course on avoiding overheating risks in Passivhaus projects is now available on on-demand and is FREE to access. The training covers: 

 

  • Design strategies to reduce risk
  • Limitations and constraints that may have an impact
  • Key indicators of the likelihood of risk
  • A series of stress tests to demonstrate the robustness of the design
