The Spruce: highlighted Building Specs

We use ZIP System® sheathing with seam-sealing tape to create a durable, weather-resistant envelope that blocks air and water infiltration. To ensure every build is sealed tight and energy-efficient, each ADU undergoes a blower door test once the on-site construction is complete. The results — along with other key performance details — are included in your Homeowner’s Welcome Packet at project completion.

Weather- and Air-Tight Shell

Green, High-Performance Insulation

Our blown-in cellulose insulation contains up to 85% recycled content and is bonded with a latex-based adhesive for extra air sealing and long-term performance.

Fresh Air, Always

We include a high-efficiency HRV (Heat Recovery Ventilator) in every unit to bring in fresh air and remove stale air—essential for healthy indoor living in well-sealed homes like ours.

Every Pine State Dwelling comes equipped with high-efficiency heat pumps.

These systems provide both heating and cooling while using significantly less energy than traditional systems. That means year-round comfort—and lower monthly utility bills, even through harsh Maine winters. Quiet, clean, and reliable, heat pumps are the perfect fit for our energy-efficient homes.

Heating and Cooling

Our homes are designed to be 100% electric, making life simpler with just one utility bill — no gas lines, no propane tanks, and no extra hassle.

Looking for backup power?
We offer a generator-ready setup as an available option, giving you peace of mind during outages. Just flip a switch and you're back online.

Thinking about going solar?
Our homes can be pre-wired for solar, so you’re ready to add panels whenever the time is right.

Want more control over your energy use?
We offer a high-efficiency smart electrical panel that tracks your power usage in real time. Get clear, month-by-month insights into where your energy is going — no guessing, just smart living.

These energy features are available as part of our standard upgrade options — thoughtfully selected to give you flexibility where it matters most.
