What is a Berm Home?

0

A berm home is a home designed for maximum energy efficiency. To accomplish this, the berm home is built using a permanent wood foundation (PWF) treated grade of lumber. This is the same material used for PWF treated wood basements. There is no basement in a berm home nor is there a crawl space. The area beneath the floor of the home actually serves as a super insulated heating plenum. There are several advantages to having this heating plenum but the one you will probably appreciate the most is that your floors will always be warm during the winter months.
