Cala's first Net-Zero-Carbon enabled home
Our expertly-designed ECO2 Holme brings together a range of carbon and energy-saving technologies under one roof.
The ECO2 Holme has been built using modern methods of construction including timber frame and low-carbon bricks, and features triple glazing and enhanced insulation. The home has PV panels, a PV diverter to heat the water cylinder, an air source heat pump, battery storage, EV charging and smart lighting. There is an aerated shower to reduce water use, wastewater heat recovery, ground floor and first floor under floor heating, and a mechanical ventilation heat-recovery system to ensure air quality within the home meets the requirements of living in a thermally efficient home. Outside, biodiversity enhancing measures include bird and bat boxes, bug hotels, rain gardens, bat bricks, hedgehog highways, a dedicated vegetable patch, and home composting facilities, bringing Cala’s Urban Wildlife Strategy to life.
This is a 4-bedroom home with a difference. Our expertly-designed ECO2 Home combines the light and spacious layout of our Holme housetype, with tried and tested technologies to help reduce your energy use.
