Join us for a field trip on May 30th as we explore the "Hybrid House", a 2,000sf two-bedroom single-family home! It is specifically designed to be energy efficient, as it approaches zero net energy! If it's green, you can guess that this home will likely have it as it is an excellent example of an intelligent design coupled with a passionate homeowner. The result is a building that matters!

-4.8 kW solar electric system
-Ground-source heat pump, serving the air floor heating system
