Through various mediums the HPBSA can work with the team to support a positive way forward with positive results. Support can come in many forms, from group meetings, one on one sessions to education collaborations and white boarding sessions.

Massive Passive
Passive House doesn't need to be daunting
Passive House is considered the most rigorous, but best performing building standard in the world.
The science is simple but the road to meeting science based targets on massive buildings, can be confusing and complex when working within the typical project delivery method, especially when combined with other high performance targets. No matter where you are in your project development we have a solution for you and your team.
Our services are customized to meet the specific needs of each client. We work collaboratively throughout the entire process so that "new" and "rigorous" doesn't need to be "scary" "expensive" or "unattainable". Contact us to find out how we can help you today.
