There’s always a story behind every retrofit in our library, but our latest case study is particularly awesome. In 1965, a barn was converted to a home. Sixty years later, it transformed again with a #deepretrofit. Read more: retrofitcanada.com/case-studies/s…

It was bound to happen! We've finally made it to the West Coast with this case study. The Fernwood #deepretrofit transformed a 1912 home into a net-positive energy residence with full electrification, enhanced insulation, and solar panels. retrofitcanada.com/case-studies/f…

And ANOTHER Solar Homes Inc. case study. Thanks to a #netzeroready #deepretrofit, all about boosting comfort and cutting energy use, this bungalow sips energy instead of guzzling it. Case study: buff.ly/aBqTrlb #deepenergyretrofits

We’ve tracked this phased #deepretrofit project since 2022. Halfway done, it’s already saving 60% of energy. This case study is one of our most comprehensive, with planning, technical, construction details, and lessons learned. Check it out here: buff.ly/QjuLg0m

🧥 New "jacket" for a 1960s bungalow 🏠 This #deepretrofit cut energy use by over 69% by wrapping the home in a high-performance building envelope. Now draft-free, more comfortable, and one heat pump away from #netzero. Read the case study: 🔗 buff.ly/mBuA1jv

Just posted a new case study from Heidi Mack, who lovingly deconstructed and rebuilt The Unhurried House—an 1871 farmhouse on Wolfe Island—into a #netzeroready home. Her intentional approach embraced reuse, resilience, and hands-on learning. buff.ly/t6cwt3w
