Unlike a passive solar home, an active solar home uses mechanical equipment, such as pumps and blowers, and an outside source df energy to help heat the house when solar energy is not enough.

与消极供暖房屋不同的是，积极供暖房屋使用机械设备，比如泵、风箱，以及外部的能量源，以保证太阳能不足时也可以给房屋供暖。

The passive house USES heat from sunlight and the heat radiated by the occupants and household equipment to keep the inside temperature at a constant level of 17 to 18 degrees Celsius.

被动式住宅使用的被动热量，来自太阳光的热量，以及住户和家用设备的热辐射，能够保持室内温度，在17摄氏度至18摄氏度的恒定水平。
