In 2007 when Kim Feldborg arrived in New Zealand he was surprised at how cold and inefficient the houses were, despite growing up in much colder European climates. Originally from Denmark, Kim has built houses in Greenland, Norway, Germany and England. He now enjoys life in a Certifed Passive House he built himself in Taupō.
Kim would like more homes to be fully Passive House, particularly around the central North Island which experiences cold winters. He’s pragmatic about his work though, recognising that many people are only just finding out about Passive House. If he can help educate other builders about airtightness and installing good quality windows, it all helps.
