He thinks of Passivhaus as a kind of gateway rabbit hole, which has since led him down further, deeper rabbit holes, focused on healthy building materials, and including his achieving a Living Future accreditation.\nIn this episode, we talk about Valentine's experience as the first to bring Passivhaus to a new area, his tactics for getting people on board, and why he thinks municipalities are missing a trick by not choosing to build publicly owned buildings to the Passivhaus standard.\nConnect with Valentine and Gomex Engineering: Valentine on LinkedIn => https://www.linkedin.com/in/valentine-t-gomez-p-eng-cphd-lfa-4688572a/\nGomex Engineering on LinkedIn => https://www.linkedin.com/company/gomex-engineering-ltd/\nGomex Engineering on Instagram => https://www.instagram.com/passivehousepei/\n\nGomex Engineering website => https://www.gomex-engineering.com/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zz7ACC0Do6d_ub0dsKpJEx0G2ZHhWXZEasIUPlYea9Y/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83MGU4/Njc2YzFhMDMyODYx/NmE3MWRkOGI1ZWI1/OTY3YS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
