Building Calgary embraces deep green initiatives in its new home construction, embracing the concept of “a home as a system.”

Building Calgary employs seasoned staff and sub-contractors with multiple years experience in building green. The focus is on structural construction that is designed to be maintenance free and last for generations. Combining durable construction materials such as insulated concrete forms (ICF) with advanced insulation products ensures tight building envelopes. This is coupled with advanced construction technologies for the building systems such as hidden, maintenance free radiant heating systems, air filtration and circulation systems, and water conservation and filtration systems.

Building Calgary employs the services of specialists in green building systems, including solar, HVAC and domestic water management specialists. All construction products are high-recycled content and low emission products that commit to the health of the occupants and environmental responsibilities. Most products are produced locally or in Canada.

Building green increases not only the home durability, but also reduces warranty and callback costs. While there is often a cost when switching from traditional building practices and supplies to more environmentally friendly ones, Navona`s building practices result in using fewer materials and generating less waste, so costs are minimized and offset.
