405 Lovell Avenue <br />2015 Roseville <br />Green Building/Remodeling Award <br />Anthony & Julie Albecker <br />The Project: The Albeckers replaced an existing 1,184 sq.ft. rambler with a high energy <br />effi ciency custom 2 story. <br />Before After <br />General Improvements <br />• Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) <br />foundation and Structurally <br />insulated Panels (SIP) to <br />reduce energy consumption, <br />conserve resources, and <br />promote healthy indoor <br />environment. <br />• Under-slab has 2-inch <br />insulated foam board with <br />radiant fl oor tubing in home <br />and garage. <br />• New home footprint is very <br />close to original foundation/ <br />hardscape with net gain of <br />permeable surface (30% of <br />the original driveway was <br />preserved). <br />• All large and mature healthy <br />trees where preserved. <br />• Roseville compost used for <br />entire lot. <br />HVAC System <br />• 3-zone radiant fl oor heating <br />built into home (Zone 1 – <br />Basement, Zone 2 – Garage, <br />Zone 3 – Bathroom. <br />• HERS Rating is 38 (Energy <br />audit was performed midway <br />through construction in <br />order to determine if any <br />insulating was missed <br />through building). <br />• Xcel Energy Star Home <br />Program Certifi ed. <br />• 2-stage 96% EFF Furnace. <br />• 2-ton 16 SEER High Effi ciency <br />AC. <br />• Heat Recovery Ventilator (air <br />exchanger and air fi ltration <br />system). <br />• Energy Star bath fans with <br />de-humidistats. <br />Best Management <br />Practices <br />• The following materials were <br />taken to reuse site: <br />• Concrete foundation <br />• Lumber from foundation <br />footing forms <br />• Rebar <br />• Old furnace and <br />mechanicals <br />• Extra fasteners and <br />adhesive compounds <br />• All cardboard <br />• Left-over construction lumber <br />was used to make shelving & <br />nook storage areas. <br />• Minimal carpet installed. <br />• Domestic wood fl ooring <br />was pre-fi nished off -site and <br />allowed extra time to off -gas. <br />• Spray foam insulation used <br />at knee walls, attic, and sill <br />perimeter. <br />Benefi cial Design <br />Elements <br />• Design complements nearby <br />homes by combining aspects <br />of the rambler, bungalow, <br />and 2-story home designs. <br />• 3-stall piggyback garage <br />accommodates existing <br />driveway and fi ts with other <br />2-car garages on block. <br />• House design and <br />positioning maximizes sun <br />position and uses passive <br />light for living areas. <br />• Bonus room over garage with <br />drain and water supply will <br />eventually be a small “green <br />room” to grow plants. <br />• Universal design make it <br />accessible to those with <br />mobility and health issues. <br />During <br />Using green <br />building ideas, <br />the Albeckers <br />increased their <br />living space, <br />reduced their <br />energy costs, <br />increased their <br />impervious <br />coverage area, <br />& saved money! <br />Sponsored by the City of Roseville <br />6c.
