What is an R-2000 Demonstration Home?
An R-2000 Demonstration Home is the first home that an R-2000 builder builds to the R-2000 Standard. The house must be evaluated by a licensed R-2000 Plan Evaluator to confirm that it has been designed to meet its performance specifications. The house must be registered with an R-2000 service organization and entered into NRCan’s national R-2000 database. After construction, the house must be inspected and air-tested to confirm whether it meets the R-2000 Standard. If the house meets all R-2000 requirements, it is certified as an R-2000 demonstration home.
