Specification

The German Passivhaus standard of "Enerphit" is a global retrofit standard of low energy & high comfort for existing buildings. The main goal of Passivhaus is to create homes that require minimal energy for heating & cooling, leading to significant cost saving & a reduced environmental impact. This design concept focuses on optimizing the building's insulation, airtightness, ventilation, & solar gain to create a comfortable indoor environment throughout the year. By using high performance triple glazed windows & a well-thought-out layout, Passivhaus properties can maintain a consistent & comfortable temperature without relying heavily on conventional heating or cooling systems. In simple terms, Passivhaus design aims to create buildings that work in harmony with nature, ensuring a cosy & eco-friendly living space for occupants while minimising energy consumption & carbon emissions.

The German Passivhaus standard has been trusted globally for over 30 years & relies on a robust certification process to ensure that certified buildings far outperform typical UK building regulation standards.

Seaton Beach Developments Ltd deliver this project having won 6 awards for their first certified Passivhaus scheme, also in Devon. Working in collaboration with a time served Architect & Construct Building Company, a unique barn conversion of great quality has been created.
