 A green construction project, called VISION House Los Angeles, welcomed Palisadians, builders, media and earth-conscious Angelenos to a lot at the corner of Via De La Paz and Bestor Avenue Thursday. The Pacific Palisades community was invited to take a peek inside the walls of the soon-to-be green home and talk to the builders about the technology that will make it “a vision of the future.” more

It’s -5ºC outside and Reiner Hoyer’s new house is 26ºC inside. That’s too hot, but it’s not because the heat is cranked up too high. In fact, the heat isn’t on at all. The only thing overheating the place are the tools and lights used by tradespeople working on the final construction details before Hoyer and his wife, Melanie, move in.
Reiner has 30 years experience as a contractor; he’s won awards for his work. But this house is something he’s built for himself. It’s one of Canada’s first ‘passive houses’ and it shows just how far we can get towards the ideal of comfort and efficiency. The fact that red tape almost prevented this building from going up also proves that technology isn’t the main limiting factor to creating truly green homes, though fancy technology is certainly part of the equation. more

Stek said Michael Gratton and another man from Peninsula Spray Foam were driving to a job shortly before 4 a.m. Wednesday when they spotted the smoke.
“We kicked in the door, smashed in the window and pulled him out,” Gratton said, noting he was headed to a job in Crystal Lake when he saw the fire.

I am building a 600 sq foot cabin in US climate zone 5 with 2 by 6 wall construction. I have gotten a lot of great information from your web site and, as a result, the wall system from the outside in is 1.5 inches of XPS rigid foam insulation, housewrap, plywood. I am trying to decide what kind of insulation to use in the wall cavity.
A local insulation contractor recommended a 1.21lb hybrid foam that is 20% open cell and 80% closed cell. Has anyone ever heard of this hybrid foam? Any opinions about this product as insulation in the wall cavity and also insulation in the attic space between the rafters?
