We’re participating in a study initiated by a doctoral student at UMASS Lowell. I’m just finishing up the initial survey questions. He currently has 21 homes in the survey. We”ll be a bit late in the data comparison since we’re not planning to be finished and moved in till November, but It will be great to see over the coming year how we compare to other net zero houses in the extended New England area.
