RECENT PROJECTS
at
Lake Creek
Surrounded by panoramic peaks, this is an integrated net-zero community of high-performance, passive homes with a mid-century mountain aesthetic and our signature Living Zenith design.
at
Liberty Park
In 2017 we built Utah’s first net-zero community in the heart of Salt Lake City. Replete with a fresh air system, ultra-insulation, and rooftop solar, these homes set new standard for performance and comfort.
Only a select group of the top builders in the country meet the extraordinary levels of excellence and quality specified by U.S. Department of Energy guidelines.Living Zenith by Redfish not only meets but exceeds all DOE Zero Energy Ready Home guidelines.
This lablel indicates relative performance of Living Zenith Homes to existing homes (built between 1990 and 2010), DOE Zero Energy Ready Homes and ENERGY STAR Certified Homes

Healthful Environment
Every Living Zenith home has a comprehensive package of measures to minimize dangerous pollutants, provide continuous fresh air, and effectively filter the air you breathe.
Advanced Technology
Every DOE Zero Energy Ready Home begins with solid building science specified by ENERGY STAR for Homes, and then adds advanced technologies and practices from DOE’s worldclass research program, Build America.
Quality Built
Advanced construction practices and technologies are specified for every DOE Zero Energy Ready Home. Then they are enforced by independent verifiers with detailed checklists and prescribed diagnostics.
Comfort plus
Superior insulation, windows, air sealing and space conditioning systems included in every DOE Zero Energy Ready Home surround you with even temperatures, low-humidity, and quiet in every room on every floor
Ultra Efficent
Compared to a typical home, an ultra efficient Zero Energy Ready Home is inexpensive to own. In fact, every DOE Zero Energy Ready Home is so energy efficient, a small solar electric system can easily offset most, or all, of your annual energy consumption. We call this Zero Net-Energy Ready.

Every DOE Zero Energy Ready Home has a comprehensive package of measures to minimize dangerous pollutants, provide continuous fresh air, and effectively filter the air you breathe.
