Ehaus Pacific The high performance standard

The eHaus Pacific provides incredible comfort and health benefits with a slightly lowered threshold on performance. 

Enjoy life in your eHaus Pacific

Fresh filtered air and a high level of insulation mean you’ll enjoy a warmer home that’s easier to heat and healthier to live in. You’ll quickly get used to the feeling of waking up warm and the freedom of using every room in the house.  

The eHaus Pacific saves carbon by reducing the amount of heat energy needed to stay comfortable indoors. An eHaus Pacific saves on average 2219.26kg of carbon a year.

eHaus Pacific Features

Comfort in Every Room

Constant temperature technology means that you can live in every room of an eHaus no matter the season. Every room is designed to operate between 20–25°c all year round.

Dry Air That's Easier to Heat

We use MHRV - Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation systems that work efficiently in the background so you can breathe fresh air and stay warm while using less energy.

Fresh Clean Air for a Healthier Life

Our homes have fresh filtered air, with up to 98% of pollutants removed - you can guarantee your tissue consumption will be reduced.

Insulation Matched to Your Climate

We use the right amount of insulation to match your regional climate. With a fully insulated slab, eHaus` are made to keep more heat in, like a thermos flask.

Outside Noise Reduced to a Whisper

eHaus are built airtight to stop draughts and air leaks, saving you money and creating a beautiful, quiet space to enjoy.

Dry Windows, Sills and Doors

Fitted with thermally efficient Low E & Argon gas windows that eliminate condensation, draughts and mould. Double or triple glazing also captures free solar energy and reduces heat loss.

Better Thermal Performance

A eHaus Pacific is designed with minimal thermal bridges - one of the most significant sources of energy loss within a building. By minimising this escape you'll save energy.

Accurate Energy Modelling

Every eHaus is modelled using PHPP software. This allows us to see the impact of any design decisions on performance while it’s still on the plans.

Lower Energy Bills

The eHaus Pacific maintains a minimum temperature of 20°c using up to 50kWh per m2 for an entire year. Comparatively, a typical NZ standard code built home would require at least 120kWh per m2 to maintain a similar temperature for a year.

How your build comes to life

New eHaus owners share their experience of working with eHaus Manawatu to build their eHaus

Every eHaus is project-managed by a regional eHaus team that knows your region like the back of their hand and are experienced high-performance builders.
