Testimonials
Home owner (or occupant) TestimonyWe are thrilled with our Zero Energy Passive House. We generate more power than we use [and it] fulfills many other goals, ranging from aging-in-place to resiliency. [It’s] always the right temperature. Not only are we exempt from power outages, but recently our house was a refuge during the smoke inundation from wildfires.Testimony CitationHomeowner
