What makes it Green:
Built by one of America's premier innovators in energy efficient design, this passive solar home has double framed walls, lots of insulation in walls, attic, and basement, a superefficient Tulikivi woodstove, and some zonal heat (cadet) for extra cold days or when you only want to heat one room. There are no VOCs in the house, the walls are hand-textured, the floors are maple. Most of the rooms have maple floors, with two rooms having wall-to-wall carpet.The most this owner has spent to heat this home was 250$ for the year (during a very cold winter), often it has been less. The owner replaced the HRV with a more efficient ERV (energy recovery ventilation). The house is airtight and is oriented with 80% of the glass facing south. The windows are all wood-framed, double paned, low E windows. On the south side are 4-foot overhangs to keep the house from heating up in the summer while letting sun in during the winter. The floors are PAL (a German finishing often used in saunas). Ceiling insulation is R38, floor insulation also R38, and walls are R39; the insulation contains no formaldyhide. In addition to being energy efficient, the house has fabulous views! There is a 1400sf daybasement which can be used for home theater or a shop. There is a dogrun, an +8x32' wine/root cellar, as well as a deer-proof garden.
