#RunWildBuildPassive | Empowering the construction industry to build for the future through simplified, standardized, Passive House systems.
Emu is a small business with a big heart and hopefully bigger impact. We believe strongly in the power of community. One thing you will hear from us over and over again is that Passive House level building science goals are much more achievable with an integrated team of professionals. There is power in shared resources and shared knowledge, and that extends naturally to the responsibilities we are facing as a community in the developments around the coronavirus.
Learn Passive House construction on your own time by joining one of our “Crews” through online learning, or join one of our in-person classes. You will learn about the most advanced construction standard in the world, and how to implement passive and net zero principles in your projects. You’ll learn everything necessary to become a Certified Passive House Tradesperson (CPHT) through the International Passivhaus Institute (PHI).
Apply your Passive House classroom education to Emu’s unique hands-on Passive Pod Workshop – with a focus on connecting research to reality. Builders are hands-on learners. A textbook and slide deck only go so far. At Emu, we’ve spent years developing a proprietary instruction tool that allows our student builders to get their hands on the products and methods we discuss in class, with the support of research-backed advanced building science.
Building to the Passivhaus standard has much easier than I expected! The material is easy to work with. The details are easy to execute. Enrico has provided thorough design details and is readily available to answer questions from the field. I’m in!
I’ve been a green builder for 16 years, and I came in here and it was like trying to drink from a fire hose.
It is our pleasure to collaborate with Emu systems in their Pilot Project Program. We are excited to be part of the Passive House building movement as it parallels our goals of innovation in the building science and construction industry. We see the potential for great strides in new construction practices and building science findings that will result from the net zero future that passive house building strives for. We hope that our expertise in structural instrumentation, sensor development, and industrial data acquisition will help Emu Systems in advancing their vision.
