When completed in fall 2019, Brinner Novak will be a GreenPoint Rated single-family home in Solana Beach. It will be all-electric, other than the fireplace and cooktop, and is striving to achieve Net Zero Energy via energy-efficient construction and a rooftop solar array. The home has an ultra-tight envelope and high R-value insulation, which greatly reduces heating and cooling requirements. The tight envelope was achieved by spraying a non-toxic, airborne sealant, AeroBarrier, into the home before insulation, which sealed any minuscule cracks and penetrations. The home will have all energy- and water-efficient appliances and plumbing fixtures to reduce utility bills and preserve environmental resources.

Come see it on the San Diego Green Building Council 2019 Green Homes Tour on Sunday October 20!
