Once again in comments to this post people are peddling the absurd myth that British houses are designed to cope with any weather whatsoever. They are OK for a few days a year when it is 20 degrees and also due to terrible draughtproofing there must be no wind
Please, just make it stop.
I was enjoying 22 degrees. I liked it. I want clouds and mizzle

The lock to the back kitchen door broke.
So I bought a new lock. And new handles while I was at it. And the door itself needed mending. And painting, two colours, inside and out. And draughtproofing. And now the countertops are looking dingy in comparison. And the lighting. And the ceiling…

@jurajmikurcik.bsky.social or @ecococon.bsky.social will have a more informed view than me on the flammability of #Passivhaus design.
I did read that the compacted straw in strawbale housing, was very fire resistance due to low oxygen levels. Draughtproofing may similarly be a fire-impediment.

We improved draughtproofing and insulation in the attic. No other changes. Monitoring electricity costs now it's got colder to see whether we need any more improvements

Orientation or body corp/ landlord.
I have seen 0 real life data showing that it would actually workout in Australia.
I want shade, insulation, draughtproofing, electrification for all renters, that is they should come by default.
A very hot long summer awaits, balcony solar will not save us

More insulation moves you down the curve. That's fine so long as it's cheap loft insulation topups & draughtproofing. But bigger stuff like EWI is unlikely to pay you back unless you're already doing a wider refurb. Upgrade rads/run at higher temps likely to be more cost-effective.

We actually want quite a lot of people to heat their home to a higher level.
Upping income is one way to do that - but that would increase carbon emissions.
So making it so you can heat to a higher level for the same money, cause of decent draughtproofing and insulation, is good.

3rd sash guy came on Friday. Did the usual “big house, must be billionaires” calc in his head and quoted enough to fund a holiday to Maldives & his entire pension fund to put some draughtproofing strips in (it’s ’a job’ but not 1/4 of the cost of the original windows for 3 days work). ASHP today….

Obviously to add, definitely should do draughtproofing, cavity wall properties should be filled, ideally with EPS beads. Single glazing should be upgraded to double. But beyond that, it’s all about the super efficient heating system, not fabric upgrades.
