Code Built vs. People's House
Energy Consumption

How do these homes perform?

This collection operates using up to 88%* less heating energy than if these same plans were built to the NZ Building Code, and here's why. The People's House Collection has been designed and modelled to meet our eHaus Pacific performance standard. Creating a thermal envelope by ensuring there's a continuous layer of insulation that wraps around the building and using high performance joinery, this home is designed to maintain a constant minimum temperature of 20°C all year round. Some active heating or cooling will be required at certain times of the year.

*Heating energy savings based on PHPP model, using climate data for the Whanganui region.

  1. Correct placement on your land to capture just the right amount of sun.
  2. Superior levels of insulation that are right for your region.
  3. Insulated joinery, reducing heat loss with no condensation.
  4. Airtightness, stopping draughts and air leaks, saving you money with lower energy costs and creating a very quiet space.
  5. Mechanical Heat Recovery Ventilation, silently bringing in fresh filtered air while keeping it comfy inside.
