Wanted: Net Zero Home Buyer!

What exactly is a net zero home you ask? Also referred to as a zero net home, it is a home that creates all of it's own energy and is essentially off of the grid. By utilizing solar panels, proper solar orientation, the most energy-efficient products and renewable energy systems such a batteries, a net zero home creates all of the energy it uses.


The average US home spends $2200/year on energy bills according to the US Dept of Energy. Thicker walls, triple panel windows, highly efficient appliances and lots of solar panels and batteries can make a home so efficient that it uses no energy outside of what it produces, thus saving the average homeowner $2200/year. With government rebates and incentives you can build for less than was previously possible. Though it is more costly to build a net zero home, you will have other added benefits as well.


-Less dust and moisture will enter your home because of thicker walls and better moisture barriers used.


-Little to no drafts with quiet and steady heating and cooling


-A more soundproof home due to thicker walls, better building materials and foam insulation


These are just a few of the added benefits of building a net zero home.


All in all, by choosing a smaller home and footprint and taking advantage of rebates and incentives, you could build a custom home that is net zero for the same price as a larger, traditional home.
