High Performance Build Chats Launch on OffSite Dirt

A good PHriend of mine/ours is Shaun St-Amour

This is our PHirst video together with OffSiteDirt

Once a month we will produce more content together based on one of our PHavorite subjects: High Performance Build

When exploring High Performance you will quickly see that Passive House will always be PHront and center.

The Passive House principles include:

1. Super Insulated assemblies with continuous insulation, this means the effective value is more than what code calls for and is a High R value and Low U value.

2. Thermal Bridge Free Construction, when possible a thermal break to minimize energy loss and increase efficiency.

3. High Performance windows which in many cases include the Euro style tilt/turn and triple glazing.

4. Air Tight Construction using a variety of products such as Liquid Applied membranes, tape, plywood and specialty sheet goods.

5. Fresh Air Machines with energy/ heat recovery ventilation running continuously.


 
We will be discussing products, projects, processes and events during our monthly videos.
