Passive house included in a series of over 30 Passive Houses 
France

ISOVER provided insulation solutions for the construction of a passive house included in a series of over 30 Passive Houses in France. ISOVER's repuation for top-of-the-line products with superior performance was a deciding factor for the developers involved with this project. 
This project, led by a private developer, involved building 31 passive houses, in four different designs, within a high-density urban district. The houses had to satisfy the French standard HQE [high environmental quality] and meet the spirit of new thermal regulations due to be implemented in 2015. To ensure high standards of energy performance, emphasis had to be given not only to thermal performance and efficiency, but to home-automation. It was equally important that the architects’ designs could be produced using existing technology. Finally, the homes were not only to meet high environmental standards, but must also meet high standards for health & safety and accessibility (HQE, HQS and HQU), and be competitively priced. The success of this project depended on the whole team of planners, architects, landscape gardeners, technical research consultants, manufacturers, skilled workers and medical advisors, working together. Special attention was paid to reducing energy consumption through a combination of bioclimatic design, good building insulation, a high-quality ventilation system and the use of renewable energies. The houses were also equipped with LED lighting and class A household appliances in order to reduce electricity consumption. As a result, passive house standards of energy consumption were achieved .
