I was immediately curious as the concept seemed “too good to be true”. Even if it did turn out to be “real”, I believed it would never be my reality as it was beyond my price range. Long story short, I’ve been in a Net Zero Energy home now for three years and have sold back my surplus of energy each year I have been here. The home is remarkable and my wife and I could not be happier with it. Further investigation in 2009 revealed a simple and an efficent technology inside the home that does cost more up front, but pays you back over time like any worthwhile investment. Ryan Dannemann, Second resident of Green Acres https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1577702085707-RH7BV9UYJMH2B04EQD2G/custom-kitchen.JPG Net Zero Energy Homes - Testimonial I couldn’t be more pleased with the way my Anthony-Aebi-built home has performed. I’ve now achieved Zero-Energy (and then some) for the past 4.5 years running. The home stays quite comfortable all year round, and I haven’t had a single issue with my systems. Added to this, Anthony is very personally invested in the performance of the homes, always asking how things are going and checking in. You can’t go wrong working with him, I assure you.

A GSHP circulates an antifreeze solution through a closed loop, installed vertically or horizontally in the earth. The fluid gathers heat from the earth for the house in the winter and reverses itself and pulls heat from the home and places it in the ground in the summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1577458929438-Y6A3Z8HPRXLQWNF36D0X/Solar-Voltaic_panels_photo.jpg How we achieve Net Zero energy in our sustainably built homes - Solar (photo-voltaic) Panels Positioned on the south-facing roof of the home, a relatively large residential system (typically 8 kilowatts) will produce all your home energy needs (for an average family). Through “net metering,” the utility company measures net consumption of electricity over the year, allowing the resident to produce electricity for the grid during the day while taking electricity from the grid at night. To account for significant seasonal variation in production and consumption, the utility will measure your total “net” consumption over the year for final billing reconciliation. In fact, the utility will pay you for any excess electricity produced over the year (at wholesale prices). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1577548563388-2NNC1O6MO3MOGE23NUB3/Shepler.JPG How we achieve Net Zero energy in our sustainably built homes - Super Insulation and High-Efficiency Windows Our homes are constructed with insulated concrete forms (ICFs) from the foundation to the roof. Not only are ICFs air-tight, but the layers of polystyrene enveloping 6 inches of reinforced concrete make for an extremely strong, durable home with insulating properties at or near the very best available.Where ICFs cannot be used, expanding foam insulation and air tight sealing ensure absolutely superior energy efficiency performance.Our windows—triple-paned, inert gas filled, low-E—exceed Energy Star performance criteria by at least 30%.Finally, we use twice the insulation required by Energy Star beneath the slab (4 inches total rigid insulation providing R-20) to complete our ground-to-roof, energy efficient thermal envelope. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1577469506152-AQPC4JVA2XD97O8BR40V/Heat_Recovery_Ventilation_white.png How we achieve Net Zero energy in our sustainably built homes - Heat Recovery Ventilation Last but not least, a heat recovery ventilation system is used to “recover” energy from outgoing tempered air that is completely lost in conventional homes (recovering up to 80% of the energy). The system also ensures consistent, superior air quality as an added benefit. https://www.zeronetnow.com/testimonials daily 0.75 2019-12-27 https://www.zeronetnow.com/meet-us daily 0.75 2020-07-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1577476302398-VR13ONZAG3WI4EASN746/Anthony+Picture+1.jpg Learn about Anthony Aebi, the builder of LEED Certified Sustainable homes https://www.zeronetnow.com/in-the-news daily 0.75 2020-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1603141257486-MQGQ3F7S9AHQNSCQ6YEL/Screen+Shot+2020-10-19+at+4.55.08+PM.png In the News https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dfd2515fccb01439aa8b2a3/1603142221105-N3CI89V9TQI13AURRMU0/Screen+Shot+2020-10-19+at+5.15.55+PM.png In the News https://www.zeronetnow.com/amenities daily 0.75 2025-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce845d89c04c80001f662e8/1559067734176-O5AXM5RPYAF7PVSNLNLC/image-asset.jpeg Amenities https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce845d89c04c80001f662e8/1559067723767-ANKBH85H88LDAZNUEAPU/image-asset.jpeg Amenities https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce845d89c04c80001f662e8/1559069559239-89WLV8Z7T1XAGJ6DQPHW/image-asset%2B%25286%2529.jpg Amenities - Natus error sit voluptatem. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ce845d89c04c80001f662e8/1559069547586-44U6TNEOIUXFUMOVYJD8/image-asset%2B%25286%2529.jpg Amenities - Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste. https://www.zeronetnow.com/book-a-room daily 0.75 2025-05-09 https://www.zeronetnow.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2025-05-09
