What is a Passive House?

Today we are going to look into what makes a passive house and what it means to you.

One important point or perhaps the most important point for a lot of people is that it saves money on energy costs.

The whole home is kept at the same temperature between 20-25 degrees all year round so there will be no cold areas or areas that are too hot to sit in. There will also be no drafts inside your home giving you that little chill that makes you uncomfortable. This is all due to quality insulation. It also reduces the entry of UV rays which can make your home unbearable during summer months unless you have the AC on all the time (saving you money on your electricity bill).

With silent mechanical ventilation you can enjoy fully renewed air 24 hours a day. The air in your home will be pure so you can enjoy your home being free of dust, pollen, bacteria, virus and all kinds of contaminant even with the windows open. This is especially important in these difficult times we are facing now where people are looking for ways of staying safe with coronavirus. Also it is important to plan for future pandemics since we never know what is around the corner. At South Spain Properties we have already seen an increase of buyers in Marbella looking for good quality homes with plenty of space. We have had people making purchases circumstantial to this pandemic. People want a better quality of life and if in the future we have to spend more time at home with another pandemic, at least they know they have a healthy space to live in.

Now continuing with passive homes, thanks to the acoustic insulation you wont hear outside noise so you are in for a more peaceful rest.

With all these stringent quality controls your home will increase in value compared to a home that is not passive.
