WPPI Energy: Deerton homeowners complete net zero energy home

Homeowners Christine and Sam Simonetta live in one of the most environmentally progressive and energy-efficient homes in the state of Michigan. Through the GreenMax Home initiative, the Simonettas took their green lifestyle another step by remodeling their already efficient home to achieve net zero energy use.

Through their recent participation in the GreenMax Home initiative, the Simonettas replaced a propane boiler with an electric air source heat pump, added supplemental insulation and expanded the home’s renewable wind energy system to achieve net zero energy use.
