Specialists In The Construction Of Certified Passive Houses

At Passive House Builders Ltd, we design and build both Passive and Energy Efficient standard homes. Our experience in building  quaility homes ensures we fully understand the necessary components needed to achieve an affordable, warm and comfortable dream home.

Passive House Builders was formed in 2009 by Cyril Mannion, having worked in construction for the previous ten years we could see it was past time for change as the standard of workanship had declined a lot over that time

By 2011 we have received two passive house certs for two of our buildings, one is  a timberframe house at Athenry Co.Galway and the other is for a masonary built building at Oranmore Co Galway

By mid 2012 we hope to have certification received for another two of our projects, By then we will be the only contractor in Ireland with four certified passive houses complete

2011 has been a very successful year for us and the Passive House movement, we are very proud to have received not one but two passive house certificates from the Passive House Institute during 2011,  these certs are the first issued in the west of Ireland, we will be continuing this trend into 2012 with two more certificates for projects just completed and one under construction in Co Limerick

"While others talk the talk Passive House Builders walk the walk!!"

Brussels' new regulation is based on the Passive House Standard, making it mandatory for all new builds as well as all retrofits as of January 2015.
