The Role of Airtightness in Passivhaus Design

Airtightness is a fundamental aspect of Passivhaus design, vital for ensuring optimal energy efficiency, thermal comfort, indoor air quality, and building durability. By preventing unintentional air leakage, airtightness significantly reduces the need for mechanical heating and cooling, resulting in lower energy consumption and a reduced carbon footprint. Furthermore, a well-sealed building envelope enhances indoor comfort by maintaining consistent temperatures and preventing drafts, while also ensuring that air quality is controlled and free from pollutants thanks to mechanical ventilation systems with heat recovery. Ultimately, achieving the stringent airtightness levels required by Passivhaus standards demands meticulous design, the use of top-quality materials, and precision in construction practices, making airtightness a cornerstone of this energy-efficient building approach.

This definition includes heating, hot water, and lighting, as well as building services, but excluded built-in electrics and loose electrics. The result was that zero-carbon homes were only possible in homes with the highest energy efficiency. The UK now uses the terms zero carbon and net-zero.
