Net Zero—and Beyond!
Curious about how to create a more comfortable, resilient, and energy-efficient home? Watch this TransformTO feature showcasing a Net Zero home and learn from our founder and Master Energy Advisor, Jack Zhou, as he explains how to achieve Net Zero—or even Net Zero Positive!
The best part? Achieving Net Zero many actually be closer than you think. These homeowners discovered that by spending just a bit more, about 5%, during the normal building process, they could transform their home into an energy powerhouse. The process was straightforward when working with an energy consultant like Jack who ensures every piece of the puzzle fits perfectly, adding value and delivering long-term energy savings.
In this video, Jack highlights the essential steps:
- Draft Proofing: Eliminating air leaks to keep your home comfortable and energy-efficient.
- Upgrading Insulation: Better insulation reduces heating and cooling demands year-round.
- ERV Systems: These “fresh air machines” act as the lungs of your home, providing clean air without compromising efficiency.
- Efficient Equipment: High-performance systems drive down energy use.
- Renewables: Solar panels and other renewable systems offset remaining energy needs, helping you achieve Net Zero—or even Net Zero Positive, where your home generates more energy than it consumes.
