Pumpkin Ridge Passive House
- High performance design & construction
- Northwest ENERGY STAR® super-efficient home
- Designed by Scott Edwards Architecture
- Built by Hammer & Hand
Elegant design, superb comfort.
The Pumpkin Ridge Passive House harnesses the simplicity of Passive House design to deliver superb comfort and efficiency at minimal additional cost.
The Pumpkin Ridge Passive House will be no more expensive on a monthly basis than a conventional custom home, when monthly energy costs are considered alongside mortgage, taxes and insurance. Yet the high performance home will consume 90% less heating energy and offer exceptional comfort and indoor air quality.
The project, designed by Scott Edwards Architecture and built by Hammer & Hand, is one of six homes in the Pacific Northwest to be featured by Northwest ENERGY STAR® as a demonstration super-efficient home.
Recent press coverage: The Oregonian's "North Plains couple's 'passive house,' built by Hammer & Hand, saves energy," KGW NewsChannel 8's "NW Energy Star: Hammer and Hand," Green Building Advisor's "Framing and Air-Sealing Tips for High-Performance Walls," and EarthTechling's "Oregon Passive House Aims To Slash Energy Bills."
