"Chainsaw Retrofit" sounds crazy, but...Discover the hidden magic of energy advisors and the amazing results of a “chainsaw retrofit” to net zero!

Stephen Magneron from Homesol Building Solutions teamed up with Philip Coe of Revision Built to upgrade Philip’s 1970s bungalow all the way to net zero ready. As Stephen and Philip show, a chainsaw retrofit is a smart, reliable way to take an older home’s frame and turn it into a high-performance, net-zero gem. Basically, the house gets a thick, cozy new bear skin—super-insulated walls and roof all the way down to the footing. It’s perfect for turning old, energy-hungry homes into efficient, all-electric spaces that feel great to live in and are kind to the planet.🟢 BLOG: greenenergyfutures.caRELATED VIDEOS:▶️ Energy Advisors: Superheroes of Affordable Net Zerohttps://youtu.be/Dfnyqwn_hHQ▶️ The Unsung Hero Behind Urbandale’s Push to Net Zerohttps://youtu.be/Z5VF1Tf-rQo▶️ CHASING NET ZERO SERIES: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLBLbJXjojqZ-c_voZoMqSbQqlqP7Oel7
