Passive House Institute

Dr. Berthold Kaufman (since 2000) does research at Passive House Institute on the thermal properties of buildings and its components, especially design of windows and ventilation systems and combined systems with heat pump for air conditioning, heating, cooling, dehumidification and DHW preparation. He advises architects engineers and construction contractors on passive house design for new build and retrofits. Much of his scientific work – and the Institute’s − has been published on www.passipedia.org , to provide wider access to reliable data on temperature, energy consumption, thermal flows, etc. for energy efficient design of buildings.
