This home was constructed using concrete insulated panel (CIP) building technology, using a tilt-up method, which at the time was unique to the residential building industry in Canada.

CIP homes are low maintenance, energy efficient, extremely durable, and resistant to common damage culprits such as rot, mould, pests, and fire.

Wain Rd home was intentionally designed to capture solar energy and retain thermal mass.Resulting in 80% less thermal transfer making it one of the easiest systems to reach energy performing certifications. Energy efficiency equals a healthy home.
