In fact, your home could be toasty warm in the winter when you are in the basement and cool on the second story in the heat of the summer. On today's episode, Ken and Yetta will be interviewing Stephen Rolston and Kevin Rankin from Land Ark Homes, award winning Ottawa home builder, to understand how net zero housing can provide a luxury experience for the similar price of a conventional new build! Join them as we learn how your home can be so efficient, it’s like using only a hair dryer to heat it - in the middle of winter!
