Testimonial - Certified Passivhaus Tradesperson Course
"I feel much more technically prepared to detail and inspect the next low energy or Passivhaus project that lands on my desk in the future."
Carl Roland
Architectural Technician, Spring Design Consultancy
What did you enjoy most about the course?
The course was both technically comprehensive and dispelled the myth that Passivhaus has to be expensive or complicated. It drove home the message that if low energy buildings can be practically conceived and executed they have the potential to be infinitely more rewarding and functional end products to deliver to clients.
What is the most useful thing you have learned?
The section on thermal bypass really highlighted the consequences of not "building tight or insulating right". While I had an understanding of this prior to the course , the information provided in the classroom really rammed home just how much poor site practice can impact future building performance.
How has this course benefited you?
I feel much more technically prepared to detail and inspect the next low energy or Passivhaus project that lands on my desk in the future.
Do you have any tips for future participants?
I would say get both your design and site based project teams on the course so that you are all speaking the same language.
