Designed Well-Being

NETZERO TECHNOLOGY

The NetZero design is achieved by combining solar, geothermal, LED lighting, insulation technology and passive design, resulting in a sustainable lifestyle that is financially smart. Over the course of a year, these proven technologies save approximately $15,000 - $30,000, depending on size of the home, in combined energy bills while increasing reliability and lowering the maintenance requirements for the home.

In addition, these houses also have the latest smart home technology with an integrated Sonos sound system, remote thermostats, and remote security system that can be controlled by your phone, so you can monitor and prepare your house for your weekend arrival.

  • This proven technology extracts existing energy from ground water to provide efficient and comfortable heating and air conditioning. This system does not require unsightly and noisy compressors around the house, and is far more reliable and efficient than traditional systems. In addition, it can provide most of the hot water needed for the home for free.

  • All recessed and landscape light fixtures have LED bulbs in them. After testing the light qualities of over 50 different LED bulbs, we have identified the best bulbs available. These bulbs give off the exact same light color and quality as traditional bulbs, are dimmable, but use only 1/10th the energy of conventional lights. Also, there is no need to replace these lightbulbs for 20+ years.

  • A solar electric system is hidden on the roof of the house and produces energy to help power the home’s electric and geothermal systems. The house is also tied to the electric grid, just like every other home, so there is always enough power. Over the course of a year, through net metering, this system is engineered to generate as much power as the house consumes, thereby virtually eliminating the electric, heating and cooling bills.

  • Exceptional insulation and waterproofing technology ensure year-round comfort inside the home. All three floors of the house are insulated with the most advanced insulation and waterproofing available. These are combined with an energy recovery ventilation system, which supplies abundant, conditioned, and filtered fresh air into the house, ensuring high air quality.

  • Passive solar design uses the architecture and orientation of the house and windows to let the sun flood the house in the colder months, and block the harsh sun rays in the summer from entering the house. This results in a house that has tons of glass, natural light and an indoor/outdoor feel, but is much more comfortable to live in year-round than traditional designs.
