Solar Modules Generate Electricity
The solar modules mounted on your roof convert sunlight directly into electricity (DC). The inverter changes the electricity created on your roof into the kind your home can use (AC). The system is interconnected with your utility. During the day, when your solar system may produce more electricity than your home is using, your utility meter will credit your utility account for any extra electricity that your system produces. This is called net metering. The utility will provide power as usual at night, or during the day when your electricity demand exceeds what the solar system can produce.
Tankless Water Heater
Tankless water heaters only heat water when it is needed. When a water source is opened, the tank-less water heater senses the demand for hot water flow and starts the heating process, delivering a never-ending supply of hot water for as long as you need it. And it saves space, taking up much less room than a conventional water heater.
Energy Efficient Windows
Spectrally selective glass windows reject the sun’s heat in the summer and reduce heat loss in the win-ter. They block much of the rays that cause fabric fade. The windows let in nearly all visible sunlight without tint and help to reduce energy bills.
High-Efficiency Furnace &Air Conditioning System
A mechanically designed system means greater com-fort, fewer maintenance problems, a quieter home and lower utility bills.
Inspections and Diagnostics
Third party inspections confirm that the energy features are installed as per protocol and that the home performs as designed.

The ultimate objective of a Zero Energy Home is to generate more power than it uses. The first step is to design and engineer the most energy efficient home and combine it with solar energy. A solar electric system is installed to power the home's energy needs. By producing as much electricity as it consumes, the home's electricity can result in a net zero usage from your utitility.
