So Matthew has been working daily in the PassivOFFICE for over a year now and it’s been a real success – quiet, comfortable and obviously with no drafts! Colder days might mean switching on the 200W heater but if the sun comes out then it doesn’t even need this! The Lunos extractors with heat recovery are performing as predicted and are indeed whisper quiet. Unfortunately the vertical sliding shutter for solar control was not fitted due to cost but Matthew uses an awning in the summer months to control overheating. It demonstrates the Passivhaus logic on a small and simple scale.
