BEST Techs Contracting Design Build Remodel, Inc.
Welcome to a Channel where you learn about Buildings, Energy, and Science and how they work together in a "House As A System." Did you know that "Code" means that Contractors can build you the WORST home possible as long as it meets "Code." How silly is that?
BEST Techs Contracting will show you The Good, The Bad, and the Darn Right Ugly in building standards and why smart contractors are starting to use Net Zero Energy and Passive House Standards as their "Building Code of Choice."
Passive House is the most rigorous voluntary standard for energy efficiency in a building, which reduces the building's ecological footprint. It results in ultra-low energy buildings that require little energy for space heating or cooling.
BEST Techs Contracting Design Build Remodel, Inc. is a Home Performance General Contractor Specializing in Healthy, Environmentally Friendly Homes, Utilizing Net Zero Energy and Passive House Standards.
