  • 402. The Magic of Heat Pumps in Blatchford Carbon Neutral Community
    Apr 7 2025

    Heat pumps are taking the world by storm and Blatchford Carbon Neutral Community has both ground-source and air-source heat pumps, heating and cooling the homes of this super-sustainable neighbourhood.

    Blatchford has a green building code and an amazing geoexchange district energy sharing system.

    It all starts with 570 bore holes beneath a lake that feed into Energy Centre One where a massive heat pump further upgrades the temperature of the fluids before sending it off the the homes of Blatchford where heat pumps effortlessly heat or cool the homes.

    Residents were skeptical at first, but nearly every person we talked to loves their heat pump and especially the fact that these units provide up to 700% energy-efficient air conditioning, which is a big help during those increasing summer heat domes.

    One builder in Blatchford is using air-source heat pumps along with solar, which produces a near-zero utility bill.

  • 400B. Solar Included, Net-Zero, Boom Done! For Kassandra and Martin in Blatchford Carbon Neutral Community
    Apr 1 2025
    Kassandra and Martin were looking for a new home in the core of the City and they hoped to include some green features in their home. But then they discovered Blatchford Carbon Neutral Community and as Martin said "Boom Done." They found Landmark Homes in Blatchford and their home is solar powered, heated by a super energy efficient air-source heat pump and it's super energy efficient. The big BONUS! This net-zero home has only one utility bill (electricity) and there's a good chance the cost will net out to zero cost over the course of the year. And they're protected from heat domes thanks to their heat pump, future energy costs and more.
