Some Details - I'll provide explanations for each later, but these pictures show some of the finer details that may otherwise go un-noticed. Note the air sealing, insulation, inclusion of scraps into the building (avoiding landfill and making the house stronger), and our nightly bon fires to avoid sending wood and cardboard to the landfill.

Final pictures and additional comments.

Ed,

I too look forward to your final house pictures as well as any comments/reflections/insights you may offer as to the the entire process, the effectiveness of the individual components (windows, groundsource heat pump for both heating and cooling, oasis basement, etc.) and any advice/recommendations you may offer to others wishing to build a "green" energy, cost efficient home or rehab an existing home for energy efficiency.

   I've followed your home's progress and I'm looking forward to seeing some final pictures of the end product. 

Thanks!

Final fit and finish

ED,

I've been following since the beginning, but you have stopped posting. I hope all is well. The last I read was that Penn Lyon was dragging their feet responding to your issues. I hope the factory is reading this as I am within 30 miles of their plant and am not impressed one bit at how they have conducted themselves after the sale.

Good Luck

T.
