All but a few small finishing touches, and this project is done!.. and it marks our 3rd completed this year with 2 to go. It still amazes me that we can go from nothing to a completed home in 10 weeks! Thanks to all the great volunteers, and there were a lot of them, that helped make this home possible for the Deik family. The partner family receiving the home, Dave and Stacie Deik, are a great family and well deserving of taking ownership of this home! This house was very special when compared to previous projects, due to all the innovative building envelope details and the primary mini-split mechanical heating and cooling system.
To highlight the features that are unique to this Habitat home:
- Frost Protected Shallow Foundation built with Reward ICF blocks
- 6″ of High Density foam under thermally broken slab
- 10-1/2″ Exterior Walls (2×6 + 4″ of exterior foam)

- ERV ducted independently from conditioning ductwork
- Ducted and non-ducted Mini-Split whole house heating/ cooling system
