The Buderus boiler/ water heater brags top of the line in efficiency but is just a piece of the equipment and standards used to construct this home. A recirculation pump ensures instantaneous hot water at all locations in the house. The walls are 2x6 with dense packed cellulose behind the vapor barrier. Over the vapor barrier is 1.5” of XPS foam board strapped with 2x4’s that mitigates any conductive heat loss to the outside. This wall design is described in an article that the builder of this home published in Fine Homebuilding magazine in May/June 2023. The downstairs area foundation are insulated concrete forms (ICF) atop a footing with the slab continuously insulated to the ICF walls mitigating all conductive heat loss to the footing. All of the windows are triple paned and the ducting has backdraft baffles throughout so there is no cold air making its way in through shower fans, hood vent or HRV. The HRV exhaust stale air and replenishes your rooms with fresh oxygenated air for better living.
