NAHB Recognizes Most Innovative Products from IBS

The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) named the winners in its 10th annual Best of IBS Awards during the NAHB International Builders’ Show (IBS) in Las Vegas last month. The awards were presented during a ceremony on the final day of the show.

This year’s Best of IBS Awards received more than 400 entries. Decided by a panel of 26 independent judges made up of industry and media representatives, the awards were given to exhibitors with a product or line that shows the best combination of design, functionality and innovation, as well as its usefulness to consumers and/or home builders.

Best in Show:

Door Stud by Door Stud LLC

thedoorstud.com

The Door Stud is a tool that revolutionizes how doors are handled, installed and re-installed. It integrates seamlessly with all door applications, interior or exterior doors, commercial or multifamily properties and national or international construction. The simplicity, cost, durability and ease of use of the product impressed the judges.

Best Home Technology Product:

GE Profile UltraFast Combo with Ventless Heat Pump Technology by GE Appliances

geappliances.com/profile-laundry

This combination washer and dryer not only saves space, time and energy, it also eliminates the laundry-day hassle of waiting around for a load transfer. Offering the ability to wash and dry a large load in two hours, the GE Profile UltraFast Combo features GentleTemp Drying Technology that eliminates the need to hang dry delicate items. Its space- saving design and ventless technology mean that the UltraFast Combo can operate anywhere with a water hookup.

Best Energy Efficient Product:

SPAN Drive by SPAN

span.io/drive

This electrical panel provides total home energy management. The SPAN Panel offers home intelligence to buyers and enables streamlined future electrification upgrades like EV chargers, heat pumps, solar and battery storage.

SPAN Drive - the company’s new Level 2 EV charger - leverages the intelligence of the SPAN Panel and brings fast (up to 48A) universal EV charging to any home with 200A electrical service, eliminating the need to increase service size for new homes and communities.

Best Indoor Product:

Overture Automated Indoor Air Quality System by Broan-NuTone

broan-nutone.com/en-us

Overture is a fully automated fresh air system, using sophisticated sensor technology to monitor a home’s indoor air quality. When it detects a rise in indoor air pollution caused by increased humidity, VOCs, smoke, carbon dioxide and small particles the system will automatically turn on the nearest ventilation fan to eliminate the pollutant while simultaneously bringing in fresh, clean air from outside. The whole system is easily set up and controlled from a mobile device.

KCHBA Members Attend IBS as Leaders, Speakers and Award Winners

More than 200,000 housing and design professionals from across the globe flocked to Las Vegas for the 10th annual Design & Construction Week (DCW), the co-location of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) International Builders’ Show (IBS) and the National Kitchen & Bath Association’s (NKBA) Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), and the three co-dated industry shows, the National Hardware Show (NHS), The International Surfaces Event (TISE) and the Las Vegas Winter Market. The five trade shows gave DCW attendees an opportunity to visit five industry trade events with just one badge.

This year’s show, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, boasted the highest attendance in DCW’s 10year history. DCW total attendance was comprised of nearly 70,000 IBS attendees and 40,000 KBIS attendees. DCW attendees visited more than 1,800 exhibitors showcasing the latest housing products across about one million net square feet of exhibit space. IBS exhibit space totaled more than 600,000 net square feet, where more than 1,300 exhibitors displayed the latest in building products and technology. In total, DCW drew nearly 110,000 attendees and nearly 2,000 exhibitors occupying more than one million square feet of indoor and outdoor exhibits.

IBS attendees could also take part in more than 100 education sessions led by experts on a wide range of industry topics.

KC’s Presence was Widespread

With about 300 KCHBA members at IBS, the association was well represented in Las Vegas. Cardinal Crest’s Joe Christensen served as a panelist in an education session called, “Don’t Make My Mistake: Builders Share Their Project Management Fails & Ways to Avoid Them.” You don’t get to the top of your game in construction without making a mistake or two, the speakers noted. Estimates and job costing goes wrong, change orders fail and teams experience communication breakdowns.

In this candid conversation, Joe and the other builder panelists shared the nitty-gritty of the lessons they’ve learned the hard way. Attendees walked away with actionable new strategies to ensure maximum profitability and productivity in all phases of the job.

You can listen to this recorded session and many others with your 2023 IBS registration. Head to buildersshow. com/Search/EducationEvents.aspx to view the full IBS Education Library.

Several members arrived in Las Vegas early for NAHB committee and subcommittee meetings. KCHBA had a strong presence with many members holding seats on NAHB committees and councils. (Note: if you sit on an NAHB committee and are not listed below, please let Kari@kchba.org know so we can add you next year).

KCHBA Leadership at NAHB:

• Single Family Builders Committee: Shawn Woods, Misty Hanson and Cole Griggs

• Design Committee: Justin Kerns and Brian Tebbenkamp

• Custom Home Builders Committee: Justin Kerns

• Land Development Committee: Shawn Woods

• Business Management & Information Technology Committee: Cole Griggs and Brian Tebbenkamp

• Construction Liability Risk Management & Building Materials Committee and PAC Trustee: Gary Kerns

• Missouri State Representative: Shawn Woods

Congratulations to our Award Winners

During IBS, NAHB named the recipients of the 17th annual NAHB/Builders Mutual Insurance Company Safety Award for Excellence (SAFE) for their commitment to strong safety programs. These awards not only recognize efforts made in cutting-edge safety technology and leading jobsite safety programs, but also efforts in mental health programs and advocacy.

As the home building industry’s only award recognizing professionals who have made successful efforts to advance safety in the industry, the SAFE program honors various companies, state and local associations and individuals for their commitment to safety.

Congratulations to Summit Homes for being honored as the Single Family Builder Safety Program of the Year (Between 100 and 500 Home Starts Per Year)!

Congratulations is also due to 2023 KCHBA President Brian Tebbenkamp of Patriot Homes, for being named NAHB’s Region D Young Professional of the Year. NAHB’s Young Professional Award recognizes young building industry professionals that propel their career, advance in local, state and national NAHB associations, advocate for the home building industry, engage with peers and embed themselves as exceptional members of their communities.

Sluggish Start for 2023 Single-Family Permits

New home starts for the month of January fell to a level of 173 units, a 24 percent decline from December 2022’s total, according to statistics compiled by the Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City (KCHBA). The lower permit activity in January is consistent with the housing forecast presented earlier in January by the KCHBA, which indicated that new-home starts are low due to the Federal Reserve’s dramatic increase of interest rates, making

Kansas City, Mo., begins 2023 at the top of the list for highest-permitting cities with 29 single-family units. Overland Park ranked second with 24 units, followed by Olathe with 16 permits issued. Rounding out the top five are Belton with 13 permits and Liberty with 11 permits issued in January.
