'The Passivhaus Designer’s Manual is an excellent guide to the many facets of Passivhaus design. And it will become the reference book of choice for many Passivhaus Designers.' - Elrond Burrell
'There’s a mystique around the whole idea of Passivhaus, and there really shouldn’t be. As this amazing manual so powerfully reveals, it’s a simple, elegant set of design principles, in which lies the promise of a truly sustainable built environment for everyone, anywhere in the world.' - Jonathon Porritt, Founder and Director, Forum for the Future, UK
‘Much more than a design guide for Passivhaus, this manual provides an excellent holistic view of good, low energy and sustainable design practice with contributions from a range of international experts. Principles, theory, and practice are clearly explained without recourse to detailed mathematical analysis making this guide accessible to a wide range of professionals; an impressive level of detail and scope.’ - Michael Holmes, consultant to Arup and principal author of CIBSE Guide A (Section 5 –Thermal Design), UK
'The Passivhaus Designer's Manual perfectly illustrates that energy doesn't have to be associated with something dirty or negative. It can be innovative, techy, clean, some would even say sexy. There is great room for creativity when it comes to energy efficiency, and this book is the proof of that.' - Maroš Šefčovič, Vice President of the European Commission for Energy Union, Belgium
'A very useful reference which adds to the knowledge and understanding of the Passivhaus standard as a potential solution to the need to reduce energy consumption.' - Andrew McFarlane, Building Engineer
