- Holiday home, with breath taking ocean views getting a kitchen renovation turns into a Passive House Retrofit. This was a renovation that started out as a Kitchen and Bathroom renovation and transitioned into a whole home passive house renovation. We focus on the building performance features of this home, which negotiated the look and feel of this epically located home which was built in the 1970's.

Great content!. Thank you so much for taking us through this home!
Every home and business should install a rain water collection and storage system along with solar panels and battery storage..
Even in areas where rain is infrequent it is crazy to waste the little rain that does fall and waste it.
Being more energy and water independent will save money in the long run.
Oh to have the money for a holiday house - and then the money to basically rebuild it
Blower door testing and air sealing add to home comfort and energy savings.
Hi guys, looks great. What brand are the windows and doors?
Nice to see how deep retrofitting is tackled down under, it's clear that the basic principles stay the same the world around, regardless how the house was originally built.
That is continuous insulation and air tightness. An ACH of 0.41 is quite good, it would even be for a new built passive house.
Large over hangs are under appreciated for siding protection from the rain and sun.
Dincel would have been a great option for the retaining wall
If the eaves don't offer enough shade over the big lift & slide doors, why didn't you install semi transparent motorised external blinds? Surely the PHPP would have told you they were necessary to prevent excessive solar heat gain?
Yep. Agree.
Nice House, I love your videos efficiency matrix, I have a question regarding passive house construction. How much does it cost to construct a double storey with passive house design techniques.
Shiva, I’m glad you enjoy our videos! We don’t really delve into the space of construction costs of passive house homes. But hopefully these passive house concepts and features start getting absorbed into mainstream construction projects.
Nice house - They need solar panels!
I’m sure it’s on the cards. Matty!
