Passive House is a building standard that dramatically reduces heating and cooling energy use through excellent insulation, airtightness, and ventilation design — and high-performance windows are one of the key elements in achieving it. Through the technical presentations and side-by-side samples, attendees gained a deeper understanding of where energy-efficiency standards and market demand are headed.
