The Trails at Cranberry Springs development is dedicated to being a highly energy-efficient sustainable development, assuming responsibility for providing sustainable solutions in order to improve energy efficiency within the building envelope. 

One-third of consumed energy is lost through conventional building envelopes. The building envelope is the key in determining the amount of energy needed for space heating and cooling, which together can account for up to 60% of all energy consumed in a residential home. 

All of our building components are designed to lower a home’s temperature in the summer and keep the heat trapped in the winter. This will make your mountain home incredibly energy-efficient.  

 Thermasheath®-SI is a composite product made up of energy-efficient insulation and a structural component and is designed to work seamlessly with non-structural Rmax 

Thermasheath®. 

  This revolutionary new structural insulated sheathing board combines a layer of structural stability with superior continuous insulation, an air barrier, and a water barrier. 

Thermasheath®-SI provides continuous structural insulation across your entire wall to optimize the design.  Continuous insulation, is the most effective way to insulate the envelope, reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gases.

Polyiso insulation air and water-resistive barrier systems contribute to meeting energy code requirements and outperform traditional water-resistive barrier materials and construction methods. 

Spray foam is the ideal insulating material for establishing an air barrier.

It has a high R-value and can easily double the potential insulating value of a wall where only a few inches of space are available. Open-cell foam can reduce energy costs by 25% to 45% per month.

Spray foam has no maintenance and will never need to be replaced, in contrast to traditional insulation, which needs constant attention and eventually needs to be replaced.

Spray Foam has good air quality, is nontoxic, and is safe for the environment. By insulating interior walls, noise and sound transmission can be reduced by up to 80%

  Structural Braising

 The fiberboard layer is a lightweight, rigid structural layer designed for lateral bracing and transverse loads, including portal frames and seismic design. 

Continuous Insulation 

A high R-value polyiso layer that provides continuous insulation and meets the highest energy-efficient standards. 

Air Barrier

Air and Water Barries - An impermeable foil facing that repels water and guards against air infiltration. 

Water Resistive Barrier

 Polyiso insulation air and water-resistive barrier systems contribute to meeting energy code requirements and outperform traditional water-resistive barrier materials and construction methods 

Our goal is to invest and provide you with the latest solar technology advances as of July 2023:

The newest solar breakthroughs are remarkable in solar cell efficiency. Solar technology system has achieved a 31.6% conversion rate from solar energy to electric current.

The solar industry has come a long way in just the last few years. The latest developments and breakthroughs in solar technology include longer-lasting solar cells, solar cells that you can print onto flexible surfaces, solar panels that track the sun from east to west throughout the day, and solar power plants that work at night.
