A '''passivhaus''' is any building designed to maintain a comfortable indoor air temperature without any active [[heating]] or [[cooling]].

To stay warm in the winter, a passivhaus relies on sunlight and good insulation. The colder the winter, the more insulation is needed.

===Construction costs===
{{sum|{{rn}} }}
Passivehauses are more complex to build, requiring more [[labor]] & [[energy]] {{qn}} and possibly rarer materials.

The increased environmental footprint of construction needs to be weighed against the energy saved on heating & cooling.

Same type of analysis also needs to be done for ''retrofitting'' existing buildings to be more passivhaus-like. <sup>[Case studies needed]</sup>
