About Wimbish Passivhaus
development of 14 new houses and flats near Saffron Walden by Hastoe Housing Association & Parsons + Whittley Architects. Built to Code for Sustainable Homes Level 4, the dwellings also comply with: Secure by Design, Lifetime Homes, Housing Quality Indicators. The properties use mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR), and a condensing gas boiler for hot water. The first six months of occupation have resulted in gas bills as low as £30 and monitoring is being carried out by University of East Anglia.
The site visit will include a tour of the development and talks from John Lefever and Clare Hendry (Hastoe) and Chris Parsons (Parsons + Whittley Architects) and Martin Ingham (LinkTreat) on the ongoing monitoring.
