BC Hydro – Smarter Homes

Posted by Ryan Coleman•January 01, 2013

Ecolighten is proud to collaborate with BC Hydro on a recent article in their Smarter Homes newsletter to support ‘Architects & Builders’ with information on the benefits of integrated Home Performance Design and green building. Titled: “Style & Comfort: the Value of Integrated Design“, the article discusses how bringing energy and mechanical decisions upfront ensures that functional and aesthetic solutions are balanced to maximum benefit in new home construction.

Some of the builder, architect and homeowner benefits explored in the article include:

Avoiding budget overruns and project delays
Minimizing construction surprises
Ability to access apples-to-apples mechanical quotations
Ultimately a satisfied homeowner with a comfortable, healthy and energy-efficient home
