THE ENERGY EFFICIENT BUILDER

ENER UIDE

Typical energy efficiency measures for French’s Fine Homes include:- heat recovery ventilators (HRV's) as a required part of your air management system.- high efficiency heating systems as applicable to your location.- furnaces with a 5" pleated media filter for improved indoor air quality.- minimum of R50 attic insulation. - R30 exterior walls of 2 x 6 construction enveloped with 1.4" rigid foam to reduce thermal bridging.- full height basement wall insulation - windows with Low Emissivity coating, Argon gas fill and warm-edge spacers between glass layers.- better draft sealing.- blower door test to identify any possible air leakage points.

We have, for many years, been verifying the energy efficiency of every home we build with an EnerGuide Energy Efficiency Evaluation Report and official label. It is conducted by an independent third party through the use of computer

modelling and an on site blower door test. This shows the home owner exactly how energy efficient the home is compared to other homes. This "EnerGuide" testing is one more assurance of your best value for your energy dollar.

THE BEND IN THE RIVER FEATURESFrench’s Fine Homes has one vacant lot left on the Muskoka River

in the town of Bracebridge. Don't miss the opportunity to have the convenience of water and sewer but with a view of the river and no sight of the town.

Imagine your home built on this lot with a view of the river flowingpast your large rakehead windows. The natural landscape is suitable for a walk out basement which will make it even easier to enjoy watersports on the river.

From the river you can access three lakes for boat cruising - Lake Muskoka, Lake Joseph, and Lake Rosseau. A short run upriver takes you to scenic Muskoka Falls. In the other direction, you’ll find Bracebridge Bay with the falls under the Silver Bridge, all the downtown attractions, and the public tennis courts.

The Ironwood tree is a native Muskoka deciduous treewhose wood is extremely hard. It was once used for toolhandles, bowls, and ox yokes. It grows well in full sun, or

in full shade; in full sun it will grow slowly up to 30 feet highand 30 feet wide. The oblong serrated leaves have two tooth

sizes. This tree produces both male and female flowers,and small chains of winged nuts. Deer graze on the

twigs, and grouse, quail, pheasants and small animals eat thenutlets. Ironwood trees are hosts to 4 species of butterflies.
