Re: Zero-Energy Homes Start With Air-sealing, Insulation, and Weatherproofing

I'm retired and would like to build a house in the next few years. It seems to me a Zero Energy Home (or darn near ZEH) would be the only way for me to go as I don't have the luxury of having my retirement resources keep up with inflation. we know that oil will increase dramatically and Cap & Trade will severely exacerbate that even more.

If we want to be warm in the winter and cool in the summer, we must build much more wisely. Keep the books coming as well as articles like the reality of geothermal heat pumps.

the truth will keep us warm!
