90m2 currently lived in but open to the attic which is mid conversion and not fully insulated yet so we are heating around 135m2.
My question with the passive haus localisation is how is this applied, as in do you get a larger heating budget in colder climates of do you have to add more insulation to keep within the 15/25 kWh/m2/yr making the PH standard easier to reach in some areas than others?
Also since the 120kwh/m2/yr appears to be generous with modern appliances, simply changing all my cfl and led lamps back to tungsten or halogen lamps and maybe swapping LCD TV,s for plasma would still keep me within the 120kwh and provide most of the heating load making the 15kwh limit redundant?
