Passive cooling technology system is a new technology that is brought in line with the concept of sustainability and its demand are constantly rising. However, the increased usage rate of this technology is still small compared to other developing countries such Malaysia. These problems can be identified in various stages of a construction process especially in construction costs and investment. The construction stage also faces problems in the installation of all passive cooling system and which is influenced by the environment in the context of consciousness.
