Hybrid Wall Evaluation for Ten New Construction Homes in Wyandotte, Michigan
Under the Wyandotte Neighborhood Stabilization Program 2 (NSP2), 20 new houses are being built and 20 existing houses are being retrofitted in Wyandotte, Michigan. This report details the design and construction of 10 new houses in the program. Wyandotte is part of a program led by the Michigan State Housing Development Authority consortium, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development under the NSP2. The City of Wyandotte has also been awarded Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant funds from the U.S. Department of Energy that are being used to develop a district ground source heat pump (GSHP) system to service the project. This report examines the energy efficiency recommendations for new construction at these homes. The report will be of interest to builders of high performance homes in a cold-climate zone, particularly where affordability is a priority. Building code officials, designers, and homeowners might also find value in the results of this project.
