Harmony Place
Living in Harmony
Harmony Place
Development is constained by covenants to build energy efficient homes.
Energy efficiency as defined by the Passive House Institute NZ standards of building performance.
Building performance modelled in Passive House Planning Package software (PHPP) to confirm energy efficiency standard at the design stage.
High Performance
Subdivision of twenty sections at 338 Frankley Road. This is a uniqiue Passive House development; first in the North Island.
A village of like-minded people in an energy efficent, environmentally sustainable community.
A community that is living in harmony.
What is Harmony Place
Performance | PHI Low Energy Standard | Passive House Classic Standard |
|---|---|---|
Airtightness (air changes/h) | 1.0 | 0.6 |
Non-Renewable Primary Energy Demand (kWh/m²a) | ≤ 120 | ≤ 120 |
% Freq. of excess humidity (>12g/kg) | ≤ 20 | ≤ 20 |
% Freq. of Over-heating (>25c) | ≤ 10 | ≤ 10 |
Cooling Demand (W/m²) | ≤ 15 | ≤ 15 |
Heating Load (W/m²) * | - | ≤ 10 |
Heating Demand (n₅₀ kWh/m²a) | ≤ 30 | ≤ 15 or * |
Minimum Energy Performance Criteria; PHI low energy standard
We believe homes should be special.
By designing comfortable living environments within a specified temperature and humidity range. AKA the Goldie Locks zone.
Utilizing available building performance enhancing methods, to catch up with the rest of the world.
Together we can push the boundaries of NZ home specs.
