The Passivehaus ‘Fabric First’ principles to which Cherish Homes adhere are intended to minimise the amount of heat a home loses, therefore minimising the amount of  energy required to heat the home even before considering the installation of heating systems.

All Cherish Homes are incredibly air tight, highly insulated & Triple Glazed throughout !

No matter what style or size of Cherish Home you choose to live in, all provide energy-efficient living using only 40-70 kWh/² per year

Air-tight - The high standard of energy-efficiency is due to the exceptional airtightness of the house’s structure ensuring that heat is kept inside the house.

Insulation- Heat loss is minimised thanks to 30cm of thermal insulation which ‘wraps the house’ to achieve a coefficient value of U=0,118 W/(m²K)… Providing an insulating envelope which protects against both cold and overheating.

Triple Glazing - Energy-efficient Triple Glazed, 6 chamber windows and patio doors with thermally protected frames achieve U=0,6 W/(m²K)… Triple-glazed windows also provide excellent sound-proofing !

. Heating & hot water is provided by an award winning Air-Source Heat Pump and a Passivhaus certified Mechanical Ventilation System with Heat Recovery is incorporated to achieve a minimum ‘B’ Rating EPC Certificate… providing a significant saving on your energy bills today and for the future.
