Renewables Package Handover At Nailsea Passivhaus

It was an exciting day for clients Terry and Frank at our Passive House project in Nailsea this week, as they met with Richard Simon, Director of Solarsense and energy consultant Piers Sadler to hand over the renewables package prior to commissioning and learn how the various elements of the system work, using the latest technology. 

Richard Simon, Director of Solarsense, demonstrates the smartphone technology that operates the renewables package for clients Terry & Frank's new Passive House while energy consultant Piers Sadler looks on.

The package includes a whole roof integrated 7.3KW PV system, a Mitsubishi air source heat pump with thermal store and the latest TESLA battery – Powerwall 2 - for storage.  

Once registered with TESLA all the data can be monitored via an App on a smartphone, laptop or tablet.
​
The house, which achieved preliminary air test results of 0.27ACH back in February is almost complete and ready to be signed off as a certified Passivhaus - the first in the wider Bristol area.
