WUFI Passive is the most powerful passive building modeling tool on the market.

WUFI Passive was developed by Fraunhofer IBP in Partnership with Phius and Owens Corning. The user-friendly tool provides toggles between IP and SI units for ease of modeling and provides access to WUFI's well-known hygrothermal modeling tool through a toggle from static to dynamic modeling. The software generates client-ready building performance reports as soon as you receive results.

Hands-On Virtual Learning

This online session includes both instructor-led tutorial style training as well as guided modeling completed by each student.

Complete a Model from Start to Finish

In this course, you will model a single family home from start to finish, learn the typical modeling workflow and complete an individual design exercise with instructor guidance and critique.

Free Access to the Modeling Tool

With course registration, students will receive an 8-week license to the full version of WUFI Passive and WUFI Plus.

Come As You Are

This workshop is intended both for those learning WUFI Passive for the first time, or those that learned WUFI Passive during Phius Certified Consultant (CPHC) training but have not had a chance to apply the tool yet.

The instructor was terrific. I learned what I expected and more as the instructor was open to questions and received them with patience and intelligence.
