Benefits of passive systems
A Passive House is thoughtfully designed to reduce energy consumption by 90% in a home. It improves the air quality, insulation, durability, and overall comfort experienced in a home
Energy efficient windows are an important consideration for both new and existing homes. Heat gain and heat loss through windows are responsible for 25%–30% of residential heating and cooling energy use.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, energy efficient windows offer significant savings.
It depends on the type of window you replace and your climate. Energy Star studies show double pane versus single pane windows can reduce energy costs by 21% to 31%
About a104 passive house aluminum system
Compatible with other Aluminum A systems allowing for massive design flexibility and project solutions. A104 Passive can also be used to fabricate highly aesthetic panel doors that meet the expectations of the most demanding users.
Old windows provide poor insulation, which makes them inefficient in terms of energy use. Homeowners are replacing their old windows and doors with energy efficient Passive home Aluminum systems. 25% of a building’s heating and cooling demands can be linked with window and doors that are poorly insulated.
Our window and door aluminum systems, which use multi-chamber technology, offer an extremely low heat transfer value. This effects how much energy you use and how much money you spend on heating and cooling.
