Kotari Constructions are accredited and certified to build homes that meet the stringent and demanding standards to achieve Passive Home status.
Passive Home FeaturesDesign, materials and architecture collide to create a home environment that regulates temperature, moisture, air-quality, humidity and energy efficiency. Passive Homes are the defining standard in modern construction, bringing the latest developments to the walls of your home. The result is a home that exceeds standards, reduces maintenance & utility costs, and manages the ecological impact of the home.
Contact UsWarming and cooling a home is a major source of energy consumption. Maintaining a comfortable temperature range cuts down on mould, condensation and heat loss/gain. This makes the home a significant factor in ongoing utility cost.
The air-tightness of a home is related to the quality of the air within and the amount of moisture passing into the home. A Passive Home will prevent leakage of pollutants from outside and maintain its temperature, thus raising efficiency.
Doors and windows must be thoughtfully crafted and placed to ensure they are not weakening the seal of the home. Glazed windows and quality doors eliminate condensation while maintaining the ability to open them.
Ventilation systems make it possible for the home to regulate its own temperature, adjust for humidity and increase the comfort of the occupants. Mechanical ventilation over natural is an all-season solution to the Australian climate.
Passive Homes are built by builders with extensive understanding and experience of the standards, procedures and materials needed to achieve this emerging contemporary building category. Each home is designed with this in mind.
Each and every home Kotari Constructions builds is an expression of decades of skill and expertise. We pour every ounce of our effort and attention into creating a home that will stand the test of time and work for its owners.
