No basement. On slab construction. Never liked basements just a place to collect junk and moisture. The home is 2 story the attached garage is heated in the floor as well. Highly recommend if anyone is building

I do keep track of kw usage however my shop usage is included but it’s +/- 30,000 kws per year. That’s for the last 11 yrs. I used to burn furnace oil and that became extremely expensive. Energy cost for oil and electric was $11k/yr. After all the upgrades we reduced it by nearly 2/3s The ROI was about 5 yrs we are very comfortable with the heat pumps and are quite excited to power them soon with the solar PV
