Over the years they\u2019ve provided hundreds of thousands of families in need with affordable homes. We are proud to partner with Habitat for Humanity<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> and couldn\u2019t think of a better way to help than ensuring a new home for a Utah family is zero-net.<\/p>\n<p>A zero-net building produces as much or more of the energy than it consumes through renewable means, meaning the building\u2019s carbon footprint is, well, zero. As buildings are responsible for 40 percent of energy consumed in the United States, (<a href=\"https:\/\/zeroenergyproject.org\/\">source<\/a>) the environmental impact of this is a given. The cherry on top is this means big savings on the energy bill. That\u2019s something anybody would love, let alone a family in need of a home from Habitat for Humanity<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>For this particular house, we installed a NTI GF200 Combi-Furnace, triple pane windows, exterior foam insulation and air sealant AeroBarrier, as well as donated money that was used towards supplies and energy-efficient products. People across our team pitched in, donating their time to help build, paint and install equipment during the construction of the home.<\/p>\n<p>But this is just the start. Our partnership means we\u2019ll help Habitat for Humanity<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> build more zero-net homes throughout our state.
