    I live and own a passive house: Feel free to ask questions :)

      Can you address any of the intuitive concerns around the air freshness and getting enough O2 and removing enough CO2 ?

      How much is the air exchange process a complex active process that you need to monitor and maintain, or is it pretty basic and “just works”?

        I would say “Pretty basic just works” it was adjusted during construction of the house and as long as you don’t do any fundamental changes to ventilation system there is no need to readjust.

      Do you find yourself having to think about “optimal use” of the house? Or can you just live your life as you would have prior to ownership and reap the benefits of the engineering?

        Most of the time I don’t think about it at all. There is have a central ventilation system with a heat exchanger. So I don’t even have to think about opening the windows for fresh air.
