What is an eHaus
We build New Zealand’s highest performing homes. Every eHaus is crafted for the highest standards of warmth, energy-efficiency and comfort. Read on to find out more about our standards ranging from our already extraordinary eHaus Pacific through to certified Passive House standards.
We design and construct beautifully efficient spaces that surpass the minimum building code. Not all eHaus’ are certified Passive House, but all of our homes are energy modelled and undergo rigorous internal checks and processes. No matter what performance standard you choose, an eHaus can promise:
Significantly reduced
energy bills
An even room
temperature all year
Fresh, filtered air

Healthy indoor environment

Designed around five building science principles
Every eHaus is based around five principles of high-quality insulation, draught-free construction, thermal bridge-free design, high-performance windows and doors, and mechanical ventilation with heat recovery.
To a range of performance standards
At the heart of every eHaus is a choice: how far do you want to go when it comes to comfort and performance? We offer three performance standards, eHaus Pacific, eHaus Euro, and certified Passive House, all of which eclipse the minimum New Zealand Building Code. See how these performance options compare.
And built with sustainability in mind
Every eHaus is designed to reduce carbon and provide heat energy savings. But we like to go even further than that. We work with suppliers that are committed to resource minimalisation, use recycled materials in their products and packaging and are just as dedicated to minimising their carbon footprint as we are.
