Passive House Heating Demand Estimate passive house heating demand. Formula: Heat Loss (kWh/m²) = U-value × ΔT × hours / 1000. Reference for energy standard. — free online calculator.

Formula

Heat Loss = U-value × Area × ΔT × hours
  • Passive House Calculator calculates its result from U, Hours, Deltat, Value, Area. It uses the formula Heat Loss = U-value × Area × ΔT × hours. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
  • The main inputs are U-Value, Area, Temperature Difference. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
  • Keep measurements and project assumptions consistent before comparing or combining values.
  • Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.

Example: Passive House

Inputs
  • U-Value: 0.15 W/m²K
  • Area: 150 m²
  • Temperature Difference: 25 K

Using U = 2, Hours = 3, Deltat = 4, Value = 5, Area = 6, the calculated result is -358.
