In today’s world of energy-conscious design and rising expectations around comfort and indoor air quality, building a better home isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential. Whether you're a homeowner, builder, or designer, understanding the fundamentals of air tightness, insulation, and ventilation is the key to delivering high-performance buildings that are efficient, comfortable, and resilient.

Achieving high-performance, energy-efficient homes requires deliberate planning, making a HERS Rater (US) or Energy Advisor (Canada) crucial for your pre-construction team.
