Video Testimonial
Home owner (or occupant) TestimonyAfter settling on an ICF building design, it was a very easy step to extend that design to build a net-zero house. We took this extra step hoping that it is good for the environment, provides us with protection against rising energy costs, and encourages further development of energy-efficient housing designs. It is very satisfying to be able to monitor the house's energy usage and see that far more energy is being generated than used.Testimony CitationHomeowner
