Pre-construction
We even have an assessment tool that makes it very to see how close you actually are in reaching Net Zero. We talk a lot about optimization and can show how $thousands can be saved with a continuous improvement process like the IDP (Integrated Design Process).
Building Science is a complex field, understanding the 3 core components of a building, the 3 building science factors, 4 control layers, 7 indoor environmental quality conditions, requires a learning knowledge beyond just energy modeling.
Existing Home Programs
Builders are being called upon, through regulatory requirements or as part of their marketing initiatives, to provide information and details which is often is outside of their core skillsets. Building performance standards and necessary load calculations are factors that we consider on every building that we evaluate. Whether it be Heat Loss / Heat Gain, Municipal, Provincial or National building codes, voluntary or mandatory, we help navigate the requirements.
During Construction
All the above is good if we do not have the credibility to back it up. We are affiliated with organizations like APEGA, CACEA, CHBA and individually have Engineers, Master Energy Advisors, Net Zero Energy Advisors, as well as a mix of other skills that are there for your benefit. We believe in giving back, which is why we are advocates of training.”
