PASSIVHAUS CERTIFICATION, DESIGN AND CONSULTANCY

 

The Inbuilt Passivhaus service delivers healthy, comfortable, ultra low-energy buildings.  Not just new homes and housing refurbishment projects, but also schools, offices, prisons, sports centres, student accommodation and care homes.

Inbuilt is one of a handful of organisations in the UK, and only twenty worldwide, who are approved by the Passivhaus Institut in Germany to certify Passivhaus schemes.

As a leading adviser in the use of the Passivhaus Planning Package (PHPP) we are working on over 90 Passivhaus dwellings in the UK and applying Passivhaus principles to non-domestic buildings and refurbishments.

Working with developers, architects and contractors we help you create buildings that:

  • Need little or no energy use for heating or cooling
  • Have excellent thermal comfort and ventilation
  • Have low primary energy use
  • Achieve high quality construction standards

We also supplement this design methodology with additional expertise to ensure health, comfort and genuine sustainability are guaranteed:

  • An approach is taken which aligns with the Code for Sustainable Homes or BREEAM requirements
  • Internal pollutants are minimised ensuring excellent indoor air quality
  • Greenhouse gas emissions are reduced in construction and operation
  • Overheating risk is minimised through advanced thermal modelling
