State-of-the-art and future-proof building technology

For maximum energy efficiency

In addition to the structural heat insulation, each new HUF House is equipped with the latest  technology that makes a significant contribution to its energy efficiency. Even in its basic configuration, the green[r]evolution HUF HAUS includes the following energy efficient technology:

• High-efficiency air-to-water heat pump - latest generation. The principle is simple and ingenious. The heat pump uses the natural heat in the air that surrounds us all the time. This heat is extracted from its natural environment, compressed to increase the temperature and then transferred to the heating system.
• Electronically controlled heat pumps - ensure optimum heat distribution.
• Modern under floor heating - by laying the circuits close together, rooms remain cozy and warm even running at low temperatures and during the harshest of winters
• Independent hot water heat pump - assures constant hot water. As this operates  independently from the heating system, the latter's heat pump can be switched off in summer thus saving energy.

If desired, every HUF house can also be equipped with the following technology:

• HUF air Fresh automated room ventilation (KWL) - monitors and controls the air flowing into and out of all rooms in order to save valuable energy. The ventilation unit is equipped with a high efficiency cross-flow heat exchanger which uses the heat of the exhaust air to pre-heat the fresh air intake and thus directs warmed fresh air into the room. The system also includes a highly effective filter that keeps dirt particle and pollen out of the rooms. So further energy saving is combined with creating a pleasant and healthy indoor environment

• Photovoltaic system - invest to earn. Photovoltaic systems convert solar energy into electrical energy. Subject to local regulation, electrical energy generated in this way can be fed into the public grid thus generating an income. This significantly improves the overall energy balance of your home. The ART 9 show house in the HUF Village demonstrates how you can go beyond mounting a photovoltaic system on the roof to integrating it harmoniously into the overall architecture of the house.
