The mercury just hit 95 degree F outside and our office is cool and comfortable at 70 degrees F no air conditioning just clean, one-time investment of good site planning and super insulation!

Insulation is saving us money in the winter as we heat our building from the frigid temperature out side to a cozy 68 degrees inside but it also makes a tremendous difference in these hot humid days of summer. . . and yes I did say "these hot humid days of summer" and it is only May.

Learn more about designing a home that is easy to heat and cool regardless of the temperature outside in our upcoming Two Week Design Build Class
