Net-Zero Ready Homes
The US Department Of Energy defines a “Zero Energy Ready Home” as a high performance home which is so energy efficient, that a renewable energy system can offset all or most of its annual energy consumption
With a superior R-value of R-24 (or higher) built into its DNA, the Element ICF airtight building envelope will, in itself, efficiently provide your new home’s biggest single performance gain in your quest to attain “Zero Energy Readiness”.
Element ICF is the perfect start towards building a Zero Energy Ready Home. Here are some suggestions for “pushing the ultra-efficient Element ICF building envelope” and optimizing your new home.
