International Passivhaus Open Day: 7th - 9th November 2025 |
The International Passivhaus Open Days are a great opportunity to learn about Passive House and energy efficient buildings. Get in contact with current owners and learn first-hand what it is like to live in a Passive House and what the building or retrofitting process was like. Some open houses and buildings will even have professionals on hand with the knowledge and tools to explain the technical details of Passive House projects.
As well to all the opportunities to talk and learn about Passive House, participants can experience Passive House buildings, both residential and non-residential, for themselves. Enjoy the comfortable interior temperatures, take a look at the ventilation system, ask questions and consider the possibilities of Passive House for your own building projects.
There are 2 different ways you can run your site tour:
- In 30-minute time slots with a maximum of 15 people (one guide to take each group through per time slot)
- One time slot with a group larger, with multiple guides all taking a group of no more than 30 through
The most important thing is participants should never leave their site tour guides, and be out of their sight. We want full visibility of guests inside your homes.
The Australian Passivhaus Association places a large amount of resources into organising this event, and as such, it is important that the organisation is credited. We expect all participants to utilise the branded items provided to them to market the event and their participation and refrain from making their own or using other items.
