EcoSmart Stud 
Favorite Home Plans? Using the EcoSmart Stud is just a notation or callout change.
If 2×6 studs are already part of the energy-efficient design for your architectural plans, transitioning to the EcoSmart™ Stud to elevate energy efficiency is a straightforward process. It’s can just be a matter of updating the notation of the plans, as demonstrated in the feature image.
The example is from the Energy Star Zero Energy Ready Home build with Blue Barn Construction in the Twin Cities. This plan was already in the draftsman’s file; the only change needed was in the yellow highlighted area, which designated the use of EcoSmart™ Studs and the Flash and Fill insulation chamber value.
With the EcoSmart™ Stud wall system and flash and fill insulation boasting a higher PLF design rating than typical nailed wall sections, no re-engineering is necessary, unlike with other wall system solutions. This is another cost-saving aspect of the EcoSmart™ Stud, making it a financially savvy choice for your projects.
Change your favorite home plan into an Energy Star Zero Energy Ready Home built with the EcoSmart™ Stud with just notation changes to the plans! You can see the other insulation changes required for the Energy Star Zero Energy Ready requirements in the notations on the plans.
