Passivhaus and EnerPHit windows in Briton Ferry
Homes in Briton Ferry can have Passivhaus and EnerPHit windows supplied and fitted, with surveys arranged across West Glamorgan including SA11.
The windows and installation detail low-energy builds depend on. Passivhaus is a building standard from the Passive House Institute; EnerPHit is its version for retrofits.
Winter light and glass choice in Briton Ferry
Winter days in Briton Ferry are short: about 7 h 48 min of daylight on 21 December, with the sun peaking near 15°. That low angle reaches deep into south-facing rooms, so we match the glass to each elevation rather than using one spec for the whole house.

Rules for Passivhaus and EnerPHit in Wales
The rules for replacement windows in Wales are set by Approved Document L for Wales (2022 edition, with 2024 amendments): 1.4 W/m²K, or a Window Energy Rating of band B or better. As in England, replacement windows are a controlled fitting: a competent person scheme installer self-certifies the work, or building control approves it.
Planning: Householder permitted development rules do not cover flats, and councils can remove rights with Article 4 directions. Listed buildings need listed building consent. Check with your council before changing the style or material.
