[Address Hidden by Seller], Urbana, IL 61801

This house is a Passive house built by the Ecological Construction Laboratory as part of an affordable home buyer program through the City of Urbana. A Passive House is extremely energy efficient because of its super-insulation, air-tight construction and energy efficient components and systems. A mechanical ventilation system provides high indoor air quality, and small localized based board heaters and large southern facing windows (triple paned, argon filled, low-e windows with insulated frames) provide the heat needed during the winter months. The ventilation system and a mini-split heat pump provide cooling and dehumidification in the summer. The homeowner can expect greater indoor comfort and vastly reduced energy bills due to these energy efficient measures.
