The electricity is powered by solar panels on a garage structure on-site. The sun and a ground coupled heating system delivers heat, with seasonal heat storage, powered by the solar panels. Heat is delivered through a high performance floor heating system from Climalevel. The wood-fired central hearth uses locally sourced wood. While not necessary to maintain temperatures, the hearth brings life and fun to the house. It also feeds into the heat recovery system for ventilation, making extra use of its energy. The ventilation air is pre-conditoned through an earth-duct, and delivered on a demand-basis, with heat recovery.
