Join this webinar, offered by Passive House Canada, and explore the costs and comforts of building and living in a Passive House. The math is simple: cost to build – running costs + comfort and health = customer satisfaction

Description

This webinar will look at the detail cost breakdowns of several completed Passive houses (Part 9) as well as their long-term running costs. The class will also look as some of the less tangible measures such as air quality and health outcomes of those living in passive homes.

Learning Outcomes

• Have an understanding of which parts of a passive home cost more and which cost less
