Hello forum,
Greetings to everyone; as a previously silent reader, I admire the expertise and the open, straightforward nature of those helping.
We are Steffi 36, Lisa almost 11, and me (Matthias) 46, currently planning the project of our lives.
About the project:
We want a passive wooden house with about 120-130m² living space in a bungalow style with a gable roof (shoebox shape with presumably 3m room height).
The house will have only narrow strips of light on two sides (street side/north side), and it will be open to the south and east with large window systems.
In the garden, a carport/garage and a natural swimming pond with an outdoor sauna are planned.
Facade made of wood (probably thermally treated spruce) with aluminum windows Uw under 0.8W/m²K.
The facade and the windows come from my employer (a large contractor specializing in wood), with the in-house planner and architect authorized to prepare plans and drawings.
I am personally responsible for the windows.
All other trades will be further contracted with recommendations from the employer (foundation slab/floors/ventilation system) and commissioned by ourselves.
The floor plan is currently being developed and the plot purchased (19x39m).
My question, and here I hope for your support: what type of hot water generation/ventilation is really sensible?
I read about concrete core activation/air-to-air heat pump/air-to-water heat pump/heating coil/heat pump; who has a passive house or experience in this field and can enlighten us before the heating or ventilation contractor directs us in the "wrong" direction?
We are rather not interested in solar cells; I am thinking of a wind turbine (the location allows it) and the setback distances will be well observed; the rotor is not supposed to be a classic 3-blade rotor but more toward a Darrieus rotor with about 1 kW power for own consumption.
Reasoning—friendly to neighbors; no shadow flicker and quieter running noise.
These are the hard facts—thanks and best regards Steffi and Matthias
