Also read the case study of the Build It magazine (05/2014) which you can find here:
After passing the air-tightness test with flying colours with 0.84 m³/(hm²)@50pa (which is more than 3 times better than required), the SAP energy certificate was finalised and the "Trojan House" (looks like a Mock Tudor on the outside and is a contemporary, very energy efficient Stommel Haus home on the inside) scored a straight A.
