Can you open the doors and windows?

Don’t believe the hype! Passive House buildings are extremely comfortable in all seasons, with windows being a major comfort component. While it is true that Passive House Buildings are designed so there are no drafts, temperature variance is extremely narrow (even near doors and windows), and active, balanced ventilation makes for superb indoor air quality, this does not mean we cannot open windows on a beautiful day or when it gets stuffy! Simply put, while your often don’t need to open them because Passive House Buildings are designed around the occupants comfort, a user will know best!
