This high performance timber-frame home uses SIPS (Structurally Insulated Panels) as part of its building envelope. This project was a labor of love by a passionate homeowner-builder who embraced a steep learning curve and delivered an outstanding final result!

With an energy rating close to 0 GJ annually, this house achieves Net Zero status!

This high performance home uses an unconventional building envelope to ensure that it’s using as little energy as possible for heating and cooling. Vleeming Construction has been awarded ‘Best Energy Efficient Home’ by BILD Central Alberta for this project and is a current finalist for BILD Alberta’s Energy Efficiency category.

This net zero duplex project merges energy efficiency with affordability. Through innovation, Homes by Sorensen has ensured that the benefits of this high performance home is realized through thoughtful design and craftsmanship. Both homes in this project have been independently certified Net Zero through the Canadian Home Builders Association Net Zero Energy Home Labelling Program.

The Montgomery Net Zero Home is Homes by Sorensen’s flagship Net Zero project. It is a certified “Net Zero Energy Home” through the Canadian Home Builder’s Association Net Zero Energy Home Labelling Program. With comfort and energy efficiency in mind, the project has achieved its goals for both performance and comfort.

This Net Zero in-fill project by Homes by Sorensen maintained the neighbourhood character while ensuring that the home performs extremely well, offsetting all consumption with on-site solar energy. It is a certified “Net Zero Energy Home” through the Canadian Home Builder’s Association Net Zero Energy Home Labelling Program.

New Street High Performance Home constructed by Homes by Sorensen in Calgary, Alberta, achieved low energy consumption through consultation. By optimizing the building envelope, assisting with window & HVAC selection and including solar photovoltaic, this home achieves “low energy status” by consuming 56% less energy than if it was built to the minimum energy requirements.
