Avoiding Natural Gas Problems

The Polar Vortex is plunging temperatures to dangerous sub-zero levels. Xcel Energy is experiencing strain in delivering natural gas to customers and has asked all 460,000 Minnesota customers to reduce their consumption by lowering their thermostats to 63. 12,000 Xcel customers in central Minnesota are asked to lower their thermostats to 60 degrees. We lowered our thermostat to 63 degrees.
Heavily insulated Passive House construction will improve your ability to weather heating fuel shortages in winter, ice storm electric outages in spring and fall, and temperature spiking electrical brown-outs and outages during extreme summer heat. Your family will be safer, more comfortable and your home will be more resilient and durable.
​Invest in your home and business and have a healthier, more stress-free life. Existing homes, apartments and small commercial buildings of most sizes and materials can be viable candidates for Passive House renovation.
