All-electric high efficiency on and off-grid options for tiny homes and ADUs. See and experience one example of an all-electric tiny home. Learn about options for insulation, water and space heating, cooktops, washer/dryers, solar, storage and more. Get hands on with relevant equipment, review example pricing, availability and associated benefits & potential issues (e.g. noise of appliances in small space; venting necessary in small space, peak loads use if off grid; etc.).
Learning Objectives:
- Enhance opportunities for helping homeowners right size homes and install practical, efficient, all electric appliances
- Recognize how window size and placement can add high value to small home spaces and also create challenges with code compliance
- Identify resources to right-size on-site renewable energy and energy storage systems
- Consider code compliant and practical water heating alternatives for small living spaces
- Explore other areas where code compliance may be challenging and confusing for small houses and where code exceptions may be needed to recognize inherent efficiency of small homes
