Congratulations to Shaun Dempsey and Christopher Nielson on becoming PHIUS Certified Passive House Consultants!

Certified Passive House Consultants (CPHCs) are well-versed in designing to the PHIUS+ climate-specific building standard and are leading the adoption passive building from coast to coast.

Shaun and Christopher both completed several phases of online and in-person trainings and exams focused on the principles of passive building design, including heat transfer, air-tightness, thermal bridge free detailing, super-insulation high-efficiency ventilation, and moisture control.

We are excited to implement these high performance building science principles into our ongoing and future residential, commercial, and renovation projects like the 288 Harrison Avenue Residences project in Boston’s Chinatown neighborhood.

We are extremely proud of Shaun and Christopher for their hard work and commitment to designing a sustainable future!
