Passivhaus

Passivhaus is the international ‘gold’ standard in buildings, focused on reducing a property’s energy demand through precise design and construction. It combines high levels of insulation, exceptional airtightness, and controlled ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) to minimise heat loss and maintain consistent indoor comfort.

Rather than relying on complex technologies, Passivhaus emphasises getting the building fabric right — ensuring energy efficiency, durability, and occupant health. For contractors and housing providers, this means meeting strict performance targets that can deliver significantly lower running costs and long-term value.

At Greenfield Controls, we’re uniquely placed to support Passivhaus construction, as our core expertise lies in two of its most critical elements: airtightness and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR).

With years of hands-on experience, Passivhaus certification, and a track record of delivering airtightness testing, consultancy, and MVHR servicing, we understand both the technical standards and the practical challenges on site. This means we can work alongside contractors, architects, and housing providers to ensure projects meet Passivhaus requirements efficiently and with confidence.
