In 2023, Solar Homes Inc. retrofitted this 1984 Calgary home, getting it to net-zero ready. By increasing the home's airtightness, adding more insulation to the exterior walls and attic, and upgrading windows and mechanical system, the home's estimated energy use dropped almost 50 per cent. The project even added an extension to the rear master bedroom.
The retrofit included the following improvements:
Rear Master Bedroom Extension
New Innotech Windows
Electrical Service Upgrade 200A
6” Roxul with Corrugated Steel Siding on the exterior
Sprayfoam attic to make it airtight and install R60 insulation
