Performance on a Budget
On this week's episode of The Build Show Podcast, Matt and Jake go deep into building high-performance homes on a reasonable budget. They talk about passive, net-zero, and net-plus homes and define their equation for a "really well-built house" (durability + health & comfort + efficiency) and what that means. They share the importance of the decision-making process, when that should happen, and how that feeds into the well-built house equation. They also discuss material choices, insulation, framing, and HVAC's role in the math of building science and budgets. Listen in to learn if there's a building science silver bullet and some of the trade-offs you can make for a really well-built home.
