The Brink 'Flair' 325 Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation Unit installed at our Richmond Passive House. The unit is housed inside a cupboard in the laundry for easy access to clean the filters, but it is very quiet so no annoying background hum.
This energy efficient SIP's home on the hill has had the uPVC windows installed. The windows have a combination of triple and double glazed Low E argon filled glass. All windows have been recessed into the insulation layer to manage the thermal bridging.
Solar panels have now been installed on our passive house in Rangiora. The differing angles are deliberate to get the most out of winter and summer sun.

3/3 - Bowenvale Ave - SIPS Passive House 🏡
Working closely with the architect and owners during the design stage we together achieved a bright, sunny home that met all the requirements of a passive house. The windows and doors were designed to prevent overheating and the SIPS and uPVC windows provided high levels of insulation and air tightness.
The owners were retiring and looking towards a warm healthy home with minimal running costs, but also a place they could entertain their children and grandchildren. The large open plan living area with timber floor and floating stairwell are two of the many interior features. Outside, window and door louvres break up the light exterior plaster finish.
