not to senatorpost about this whole perse/phius thing again but, for a response doc titled "Accountability" there is a shocking lack of accountability taken by ren.

Conventional wisdom among architects in DC has been that Eric Colbert is a hack copyist, but here his firm delivered a LEED Platinum /Phius CORE, 1:1 replacement affordable housing project that looks crisper than basically every other multifam building opened in DC in the very busy year of 2024.

Designing for passive house gives you leg up on criteria for getting LITHC funding In Massachusetts. Result: PHIUS certified 100% affordable housing projects like the Kenzi. #AIA25

for what it's worth i couldn't stomach reading too much of the document just from how foul it was. please do treat it with care. please please add trigger warnings. if you cannot stomach it, please just click off it, block perse / phius, and move forward with your day.

do not expose yourself to triggering content without protecting yourself from it. do not harm your own mental health for the sake of staying informed.
the document is incredibly damning. there is a mountain of evidence proving it is perse / phius. block them, move on.

Even PH mandates may not help. This is Providence’s first (and currently only) PHIUS-certified multifamily.

slight relief (and i don't consider PHIUS buildings to be a passivhaus)

Huge trigger warnings for abuse, manipulation, and blood

As a brief summary for oomfs who don't wanna peek, these are screenshots of plain emotional and manipulative abuse coming From Ren (perse/phius) to an ex of theirs +
Hello.

I've been approached by one of Ren's past victims, and given permission to share their testimony on the abuse they suffered at his hands in 2019.

This includes extensive emotional abuse, suicide-baiting, threats of physical violence, and threats to call ICE on their family.

Read it here.
a lot has been said about me today. i figured it's about time i said something myself.

on ren/byletri/persephius, his lies, stalking, and block evading me through badgering a third person to DM me while my terminally ill mother was in the ICU, among other things.

allowances for new passivhaus construction as well (and agnostic on the PHIUS/PHI issue)

this is great because some jurisdictions measure gross floor area to exterior face of wall. would allow passivhaus ADUs to be much larger.

I appreciate the tip, I’m going to look into PHN. For us, the addtl burden of the PHIUS process just makes it unrealistic for most projects. To be fair, this is far less of a problem with PHIUS than it is regressive zoning regs in the cities we work in most.

eesh theres some other ones if you look up pe/rse/phius 😬

I can make some introductions for you to PHIUS/PHAUS staff, if/when you're ready

Is there much difference between PHN and PHIUS methodology? I’m a certified CPHC thru PHIUS, but not familiar with PHN yet. It’s been really challenging where we work to mesh passive house design with all of the other administrative, economic and labor challenges that already exist.

it's definitely not PHIUS (it's in vienna)

1.5 gal/minute (5.7 L/min) is common in hotels for this reason. These can work great, provided enough pressure is available at the shower (pressure is different from flow). Gary Klein’s study ‘Why Your Shower is Wimpy’ presented at PHIUS in 2023 illustrates the importance of a good showerhead.
