Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee chat with Chris Wimbles of Perspective Homes by Pacific and homeowner, Drew Bonnell, sharing their experiences building their first net zero home including solar power.

B次元官网网址榊ou hear it all the time, communication. Because this was a complex project and because we had so many moving parts with so many people involved, if there were challenges, it was through a lack of communication rather than too much communication. You know the old adage, thereB次元官网网址檚 just no stupid questions. Just get it out there, letB次元官网网址檚 air it, talk about it, and then itB次元官网网址檒l save time and money later,B次元官网网址� says Drew Bonnell, homeowner.

The goals of this project were to build a design forward, future-proof home with sustainable features using renewable energy as progressive as possible, within the available budget. As the plan progressed, it became obvious, net zero was within reach with lots of lessons learned along the way.

B次元官网网址楩rom a building standpoint, what weB次元官网网址檝e really learned is the importance of having as many design decisions and as many final product decisions from the onset. Obviously, thereB次元官网网址檚 always going to be things that change, but really, if you are a homeowner and you want to build something, try to figure out what it is you want and invest in the pre-construction design process of the projectB次元官网网址� especially with all the supply chain issues that weB次元官网网址檙e still having in the industry, itB次元官网网址檚 critical that you work with a schedule and in a way that that can get it all achieved.B次元官网网址� Chris Wimble, Perspective Homes by Pacific.
