On: Multifamily Passive House in Vancouver

[baybal2]

A good place for passive house is one where a house can cool down enough during the night and accumulate enough of heat during the day.

If the temperature simply goes to -20 and stays there 24/7 for the rest of the seasons. You have to design a house differently.

I'm not sure about Alps region. Are conditions there like that?

Lausanne was like that, not exactly the apps but on the southern nearby end. I venture that most of Europe has mild enough winters and summers outside of the extremes northern and southern parts.
