Dufferin Street Build - Alliston
Our 2011 Alliston project will be a single level home (with
basement).
We will use a product known as
FORM-A-DRAIN. It is a 3-in-1 system
that forms footings and provides an integrated drainage system.
Both the basement and main floor
exterior walls will be constructed using Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)
The following are other features that will be incorporated into this green build:
- open web floor
joist truss system. \
- a drain water heat
recovery (DWHR) device.
- a heat recovery system - the HRV (heat recovery
ventilation).
- framed interior walls using steel studs.
- a tankless water
heating system
- a
steel roof
