Ep 36: High Performance Home Trends

You will find ‘Measure Twice, Cut Once’ podcasts on iTunes, Spotify and Google podcasts. What is a high-performance home and what does it mean for you and your family? Understanding the different industry accreditations, keeping up with building trends, and knowing what type of high-performance home is right for you can be overwhelming. ‘When people are looking to build a home for their family to live in, it is a smart idea to build above basic code to some level of high performance. Consistent temperature control throughout the home, improved sound barriers, better air quality, increased energy efficiency, and a reduced environmental footprint with improved durability are just some of the benefits that can be realized in high-performance homes’, says Eric Lee. Join co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee on this edition of ‘Measure Twice, Cut Once’.
