Run your home the way you live your life
PassivEnergy™ is an advanced heating and hot water management service that could help you save up to 18% on your energy bills. Installed professionally, our system replaces your existing controls and, by learning about your home, your lifestyle and the temperature outside your front door, helps cut out energy waste in your home. PassivEnergy™ can be accessed from the touch-screen PassivController, your iPhone or iTouch and, soon any web enabled device, giving you sight and control of your home wherever you are.

How it works
PassivEnergy™ is, to be frank, extremely clever. It works with your home to give you a perfect balance of energy use.
The heart and brains of PassivEnergy™ is the PassivHub, which talks wirelessly to sensors and controls around your home, and connects via your existing broadband to our secure online service. Software in the PassivHub works with you to optimise your consumption. We can keep the PassivHub up-to-date with the latest features, even after installation. Your window into PassivEnergy™ today is the PassivController – a touchscreen that gives you control from anywhere in the house. We know technology can be hard to use, so we’ve worked hard to make the PassivController simple and intuitive.
PassivEnergy™ manages your home rather than simply monitoring it, which is why it needs to be installed by a PassivSystems qualified installer. To talk to your nearest installer, simply fill in the form here and we’ll get straight back to you.

Exploring PassivEnergy™
Almost everyhting in PassivEnergy™ revolves around what is happening in your home. When using our system, it will always be in one of four occupancy states:
In means there are people at home and that they're awake
Asleep means everyone at home is in bed
Out means no-one is at home for a while
Vacation means no-one is at home for more than one day
Once you have got the hang of occupancy, everything else is based on you making a number of simple choices. How warm do you want the house when you are in? What about when you are sleeping? If we are looking after your hot water, how hot do you like it?
The clever bit is that PassivEnergy™ then works out when your heating and hot water systems need to start working to be ready for when you want them. The difference to your existing system sounds subtle but the technology behind it is very smart indeed.
By learning how your heating and hot water systems perform, overlaying this information with insight about the thermal properties of your home and the weather outside your window, PassivEnergy™ runs your home with minimal energy waste. Which means lower bills and a smaller carbon footprint.
So, no more having to guess what time your heating should go on to get the house warm for when you get out of bed. Just tell PassivEnergy™ the time your alarm clock will ring, and we take care of the rest.
