Informazioni sugli autori
Janet Cotterell is a chartered architect with more than 20 years' experience working in sensitive settings (conservation areas, listed buildings, historic parks), so is familiar with the use of traditional and natural materials. Her focus is on the importance of sustainable building practices and low-energy design principles. She is also a Certified Passivhaus Designer and holds an MSc in Architecture: Advanced Environmental & Energy Studies.
Adam Dadeby is one of the UK's leading experts in Passivhaus and residential heat recovery ventilation (MVHR). A Certified Passivhaus Consultant and a member of the AECB (the Sustainable Building Association), Adam also holds a postgraduate diploma in Architecture: Advanced Environmental & Energy Studies from the Centre for Alternative Technology (CAT), where he became passionate about the ways 'sustainability' and 'resilience' affect building practice. He and his wife Erica ran the UK's first and only Passivhaus bed and breakfast for a number of years. He has presented talks nationally on Passivhaus and MVHR to built-environment professionals and aspiring self-builders.

Hardback. Condizione: New. 'As we move towards the 2016 zero carbon target in house building, Passivhaus construction looks like becoming not just popular in the UK, but commonplace. This is a no-nonsense and engaging introduction on how to do it.' KEVIN MCCLOUD-The Passivhaus Handbook is an essential guide for anyone wanting to realise a supremely comfortable, healthy and durable home with exceptionally low energy costs. Passivhaus design focuses on getting the building fabric right, to achieve ultra-low energy consumption cost-effectively. The approach is relevant to a wide range of building types and climates. Its methodology can be combined with elements of other building standards, such as the UK's Code for Sustainable Homes (CSH), or with other sustainable building goals, such as a commitment to using low-impact or natural building materials.Whether you are building an extension, retrofitting your house or starting from scratch, and whether you are new to low-energy design or already have some experience, this book will help you navigate around the potential pitfalls and misconceptions. It brings together current thinking and best practice.The book includes a clear explanation of the underlying building physics and terminology, as well as detailed information on key elements of Passivhaus: avoiding air leakage, designing thermal (cold) bridges, moisture management and ventilation strategy. There is also lots of practical advice on setting up a project, including developing a motivated project team, and a discussion of economic considerations and the policy context in the UK. As pressure on global resources increases and energy prices continue to rise, the Passivhaus approach, proven over 20 years, meets the challenge of ultra-low-energy building for the future.
