The residence planning has been carried out in compliance with energy-efficient technologies. In such a way, all of the rooms have a correct cardinal orientation, the walls and windows have a minimal thermal conductivity coefficient. The heating and hot water surply system is provided by a heat pump and supplemented by solar fitted onto the roof. Also, a forced air ventilation system equipped with a heat recovery appliance is used. There is ensure a comfortable and ecological living inside this house.

We used a thermal imaging camera to look for signs of heat and energy loss around the house, specifically for poor insulation, for cracks in hollow walls. The cameras will provide a visual picture of where you are losing power.
