There doesn’t seem to be many pictures of insulated foundations, so here’s mine. R37 insulated floor, R61 walls. IEC zone 7 (Central Alberta), 6000 HDD, 99% design temperature is -30°C to 29°C, PHPP modeling estimates annual heat load of 23 kwh/m2/year for my design.

The Edmonton tour is this weekend. You should visit #3 since “we” paid for it. It’s an opportunity to learn about net zero homes and different ways of building other than minimum code.
Right of way belongs to whoever takes the most risk.
Are there other brands similar to the Cube Lift with a build on site shaft? Our original plans had a fully engineered and approved shaft but we removed it to increase the amount of natural light.
Other option is a Stiltz trio but having a u frame and open bottom isn’t as appealing aesthetically.
Looking for a new induction cook top aka hob. It seems like nearly everything has gone to touch controls with 1 brand including an unnecessary screen. Viking seems to be the only brand with knobs on most of their models.
What happened to the good old knob control?
