Most Summerhill Builds Aren't Truly Passive

Building in Summerhill should mean comfort and confidence, yet too many homes labelled efficient still struggle with draughts, condensation and rising bills. The cause is the same: untested airtightness, thermal bridges and undersized MVHR. A real Summerhill Passivhaus demands specialist physics.
