First CHBA Towards Net Zero Renovation in Canada

What is a Net Zero Ready renovation?
A Net Zero Ready renovation is designed and built to the same high-performance standards as a Net Zero home, focusing on insulation, airtightness, and energy efficiency - without the renewable energy system installed just yet. Once added, the home is capable of producing as much energy as it consumes. At Lagois Design Build Renovate, we’ve brought this to life firsthand, delivering the first renovation project in Canada through CHBA’s Towards Net Zero program, setting a benchmark for what’s possible in residential renovation.
These projects require thoughtful planning and precise execution from advanced air sealing and upgraded insulation to high-performance systems like energy recovery ventilation and electric heat pumps. Every element works together to reduce energy loss, improve comfort, and create a healthier indoor environment. The result is a home that not only performs better today, but is built for a more sustainable, energy-efficient future.
