COMPANY PROFILE

AFFILIATIONS

As a Passive Home Certified Builder, we are innately familiar with passive solar strategies, thermal bridging and air tight homes.

As a LEED Acredited Professional we utilize a 'whole system' approach in determing building systems.

The EPA's program to encourage Zero Energy Homes and strive to make this a goal of every project.

Now that version 3 of Energy Star is implemented, this program has become the minimal, defacto 3rd party certification.

EPA INDOOR AIR PLUS

The only certification that strictly encourages superior Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and we fully embrace it.

At Boulder ZED our new homes strive for a low carbon footprint through future, low operating energy requirements and low first cost strategies. To get to Net Zero we take a conservation approach first. The envelope efficiency is maximized through insulation, air-tightness and well insulated, tuned windows. Once our envelope is efficient, our energy systems can be much smaller, yet still very comfortable. We feel part of being comfortable has a lot to do wtih being healthy and we pride ourselves in the healthiness of our homes. We go far beyond code requirements for air exchange and use of low to no VOC materials. Lastly, we are forward thinkers providing low cost future proof design details. Please see our Projects > Overview page for more in-depth deisgn and construction details.

In the end, our whole system, green building approach while chasing third party certifications helps us create uber comfortable, healthy and efficient homes.
