We are very excited to announce the completion of our first Passivhaus Certified Residential Buildings delivered by our growing team of Passivhaus trained Architects and Technologists at Halliday Fraser Munro. As you enter Midlothian council’s new social housing development on Newmills Road in Dalkeith, you may not notice anything out of the ordinary about the houses occupying plots 5 & 6 but these homes are extraordinary. They are Passivhaus certified and, as such, will use a fraction of the energy required to heat a typical home built to 2020 building regulations and approximately 90% less than the average UK house. This achievement is all the more remarkable as we have reconfigured an existing social house design to suit Passivhaus standards. This demonstrates that achieving Passivhaus performance standards doesn’t necessitate radical new house designs but clever integration of Passivhaus principles through the design and build process. We are delighted to have worked together with Ogilvie Construction Ltd and Midlothian Council to deliver another successful and innovative project. If you are interested in the benefits that Zero Carbon and Passivhaus Initiatives could bring your project, we would love to hear from you.
