Remember the work I did for Ottawa Magazine<\/a> on Malcolm Isaacs’ Passivhaus inspired house<\/a> near Wakefield Quebec? Malcolm is presenting his innovative work in house design in Chelsea, Quebec this week.<\/p>\n

\"Passivhaus\"<\/p>\n

As a reminder – Malcolm was tired hearing how fantastic current Canadian houses are being built. Compared to developments in Europe we are behind the times!<\/p>\n

\"Passivhaus<\/p>\n

Malcolm Isaacs<\/strong> is a civil engineer who has worked as a specialist in residential energy analysis and low-energy construction<\/em> since 1987. He has studied extensively in Europe and in 2005\/6 he designed and built the first house in Canada based on PassivHaus ideas. He is now a Certified Passive House Designer, and an advocate and trainer in low energy construction techniques, thermal analysis and energy modeling.<\/p>\n

\"Passivhaus<\/p>\n

Malcolm researched, designed and built this attractive three bedroom home. His home uses only 25% the energy of a new and normal Canadian home. That means four of Malcolm’s houses could be heated from the energy of one ‘well designed’ modern, Canadian house. His secret – appropriate and ample use of insulation.<\/p>\n

Malcolm is presenting his work at the United Church in Chelsea:<\/p>\n
