The TRU-CHBA Training House is more than a fundraiser. While the finished product becomes The Dream Home, and supports the Kamloops YMCA-YWCA, the work it takes to get to the finished product is just as important. Students from TRU Residential Construction Program learn on-the-job skills from working with both their instructor Hank Bangma, as well as the professional contractors involved in the project.

Training House a winning Partnership T

he community knows it as the Dream Home but for Thompson Rivers University (TRU) School of Trades and Technology and the local Canadian Homebuilders Association (CHBA) it’s known as the Training House.

Every year TRU and CHBA collaborate to build a house that showcases the latest and greatest in homebuilding techniques and technologies. Hank Bangma, TRU instructor, brings his students to the construction site to teach them the practical application of knowledge gained in the classroom.

Over the years he’s seen many innovative features first introduced in the Training House become standard in today’s home construction. “Our students are exposed to new building materials and methods the average worker in the industry often hasn’t seen yet,” Bangma says. “For a young person entering the workforce having that experience gives them a marketable skill not otherwise easily available to an employer.”

“

Our students are exposed to new building materials and methods the average worker in the industry hasn’t seen yet.”

— Hank Bangma, TRU Trades instructor

Even since 1999, when Bangma first became associated with the Training House, he’s seen a revolution in home building driven by changing attitudes toward energy efficiency, sustainability and information technology.

Energy efficiency has affected home construction from foundation to roof. Basements are routinely created from concrete poured into expanded polystyrene forms the same material as “Styrofoam” coffee cups — resulting in a one step process that produces a structurally sound R-25 base-

ment. Roof trusses now come with ‘heels’ to provide more lift to accommodate the thicker attic insulation and the building itself is wrapped in Tyvek to create a barrier to air leakage where most of a home’s energy is lost. Low emission windows, heat pumps, on-demand hot water and heat recovery ventilation systems are only a few standard features that were once innovations.

Sustainability has changed house framing from 16” on centre to 24”, which means a third less lumber in the exterior walls.

Not only does that save materials, it improves energy efficiency for each stud represents a thermal bridge drawing warmth from a house.

Even aesthetics have been touched by technology. Those big wide-open spaces now common in new homes are only possible because of innovation in floor joists and roof trusses that enable them to span wider distances without support.

The most technologically advanced Training House in recent memory is the 2010 Dream Home. An Equilibrium Demonstration Home, it was one of only three built in Canada and it came about with the collaboration of government, industry and technology and trades training. TRU students worked with leading edge green technologies, such as geothermal, Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), Insulated Concrete Forms (ICS), solar panels and a roof of recycled tires to name but a few.

All technology starts as an idea but to convert it to reality requires a special group of people who embody an attitude of openness and a spirit of cooperation. In the world of home building there are few that can match the winning partnership between the Residential Construction Program offered by TRU School of Trades and Technology and the Central Interior CHBA. And out of that partnership the biggest winner is the Kamloops community.

A BuiltGreen Platinum Dream home

his year’s training house at 1363 Rockcress Drive is ranked Platinum, the top level in the BuiltGreen® Canada measure of energy efficiency in a home. But what does it take to create that kind of performance and what does it mean for the homeowner?

It all began last May at the planning stage, when Blue Green Architecture designed the house in direct consultation with the CHBA-CI’s Training House Project Manager Matt McCurrach. Together they reviewed all the elements of the BuiltGreen® comprehensive checklist in seven categories: w Envelope and Energy Systems w Materials and Methods w Indoor Air Quality w Ventilation w Waste Management w Water Conservation w Business Practices With the enthusiastic support of the suppliers and tradespeople sponsoring the house the decision was made to achieve

the top BuiltGreen® rating. Thompson Rivers University School of Trades registered the home with BuiltGreen® Canada.

Creating a BuiltGreen® home starts at the planning stage with the use of computer models. Certified Energy Advisor Ian Rice of Amerispec Inspection Services simulated the home’s energy performance under various scenarios to determine what features would most effectively achieve the Platinum rating.

With the energy features pre-determined through modeling, construction begins and along with it comes meticulous documentation. At every phase photographs are taken as visual proof that every energy-saving feature specified in the BuiltGreen® checklist has been installed correctly and meets the exacting requirements. This collection of photographs represents the permanent construction record of the home’s energy features should BuiltGreen® Canada ever request verification.

The final step in creating a BuiltGreen® home is the blower door test, which physi-

TRU students work on the foundation of the Training House using the Logix foam insulation system, thereby raising the insulation value in the home.

cally measures air leakage, the most significant cause of energy loss in every home.

The 2013 Training House achieved its Platinum rating of 87 on the EnerGuide Rating Scale, a performance that went beyond the modeled results.

An EnerGuide rating of 87 means the

mechanical systems work efficiently and economically while keeping the air quality in the home fresh. That spells lower energy bills and improved air quality.

Keeping on top of technology F

rom the exterior, the TRU-CHBA Training House in the Hidden Trails development looks modern with its flat rooflines and generous windows.

That modern feel of the home continues right through to the walls and the wiring, thanks to Shane Sytnyk and Jess Rothenburger of SA Electric.

The Training Home is wired for just about every situation with Control4 technology. While more and more often homeowners are wiring new homes and retrofitting existing homes for sound, this new technology takes automation to a new level, says Sytnyk.

It boasts a built in camera intercom system, allowing someone on the main floor to both communicate with and view those on every other level of the house and entryway.

“You can control all the music in the house and tune in to about 70,000 radio stations and podcasts,” says Sytnyk, and you can do so from the touch screen control panel in the home, or from your phone.

“There’s so much variety with this,” Sytnyk says, explaining that the home is configured into “zones,” meaning the same music can be playing throughout the home, or it can be different music in every zone, including the exterior.

Lighting works in the same way, with various lighting ‘moods’ programmed into the control panel.

Control4 offers smart-lighting solutions that integrate lighting with music, shades, locks, climate control and video. As well, the wireless lighting control line features customized keypads, LED backlighting with ambient sensors, and are simple to personalize.

More and more people are asking for this type of technology, and while Control4 isn’t yet standard, Sytnyk expects it to quickly catch on. Retrofitting existing homes with this type of electrical design is also possible.

What’s unique about wiring a home in this way is that it forces a homeowner to really consider how they’re going to live

in the space.

There’s no limit to what this type of technology can do, Sytnyk says.

“For the most part, it just depends on the imagination of the homeowner — we can do whatever you can dream up.”

A FAMILY home in a FAMILY neighbourhood

very year the designer, builder and project manager of the YM-YWCA Dream Home strive to outdo previous builds.

This year, says project manager Matt McCurrach of Homex Development, the goal was to create a home that is contemporary and modern in a stunning location that would act as a showcase for tradespeople and suppliers to exhibit the latest and greatest trends within their industries.

This years’ Dream Home and Training House project began in May 2012 with a thorough selection process. The Homex development at Hidden Trails in Mount Dufferin was selected, and being chosen as the developer of the Dream Home was a boon, says McCurrach.

“It’s a new development and it’s a way to get people coming up to this new area,” he says, noting that while close to all ameniti es, Hidden Trails feels remote as it backs onto the trails of Kenna Cartwright Park.

The Hidden Trails development is approximately 100 acres. The homes on the multi-phased project are all of contempo-

“

We maximized the space inside, but made it usable and livable for your average family.”

— Matt McCurrach, CHBA-CI Training House Project Manager

rary design. “We’re trying to raise the bar and the level in terms of housing. We’re trying to do different things,” says McCurrach of the Homex property.

Within the Dream Home property, and Hidden Trails in general, McCurrach said a concerted effort was made to “create better living conditions for the average family.”

This means the streets are slightly narrower, allowing for a natural slowing of traffic. The development integrates beautifully with the natural surroundings, creating “less of a concrete jungle” effect that exists in many new subdivisions.

Being selected to design and manage the dream home “is good marketing, good ex-

posure for the development,” McCurrach says, but more than anything, it’s a perfect opportunity for suppliers to showcase the newest and best products they have available.

“When we can expect 20,000 to 30,000 people through here in three months it basically acts as a giant showroom for suppliers and tradespeople.”

The home is a perfect exhibit space, with its open living areas and the wall of windows at the rear of the house, allowing in plenty of natural light.

“We’re trying to get away from monster houses, but this is still a good sized home,” McCurrach says, though it is designed with function in mind. “We maximized the space inside, but made it usable and livable for your average family.”

All the living space is on the main floor, with a laundry room right off the kitchen, leading to the garage. The bedrooms — including the master suite — are all on the third floor, and the basement is currently unfinished, but plumbed for an additional bathroom, and there is space ideal for a

wine cellar.

While McCurrach has been managing residential construction projects for years, the Training Home offered up new challenges, as well as new rewards.

The biggest reward was watching the progress of the TRU trades students, who arrived at the start of the build with their instructor Hank Bangma.

“He was taking students in who have never put on a tool belt. That first day they’re a little star struck, but then they develop over time.”

Any concern he may have had at the start about the students working with the contracting professionals during the build, faded almost immediately.

“They worked really well together, and there was a lot of times the professionals stopped what they were doing to give a little lesson.”

The opportunity to work on the home is fantastic for the students, McCurrach says.

“They’re working with all the latest and greatest — a lot of these things people haven’t seen before.”

In the future buildings will sell energy, not buy it.

Training House a showcase for industry excellence

F

or this years’ YM-YWCA Dream Home, the designer, architect and builder worked together with one idea in mind — to make a family-friendly home.

“We wanted a good family home in a good family neighbourhood,” says designer and realtor Jerri Van, placing the emphasis on ‘family’ because that’s what the Y is all about.

Van got involved in the project right from the design stage, with architect Kevin Ryan from Blue Green Architecture, and Matt McCurrach from Homex.

Along with creating a perfect family home, the design team intended to create a gallery, so to speak — a place where all the trades could showcase the latest and greatest in their respective fields.

To create a perfect showroom, Van set to work looking for modern design elements.

Everything from the interior doors — which are glossy white with striking hardware, to the seven-inch baseboards contribute to the contemporary feel of the home.

The plumbing fixtures are new to the

Kamloops market, as is the lighting featured throughout the house.

“We worked with The Lampost and they were fabulous. We really pushed the limits here,” says Van. The kitchen is visually stunning with the dark red high gloss cabinetry from Excel Industries, and it’s extremely functional as the highest cabinets are touch-activated.

The countertops are solid-surface quartz, and the appliances are top-of-the-line.

“The kitchen is meant to be practical and usable, but it also has that ‘wow’ factor,” says Van. Adding to the practicality of the home is the laundry room directly off the kitchen with access to the garage.

What really pushed the design limit, however, is the floating staircase made of solid, clear fir, flanked on one side by a floor-to-ceiling glass wall, and on the other by an LED-lit rock wall.

The flooring throughout the house is a mix of tile and hardwood in the living space, and carpet in the bedrooms. The flooring was chosen for practical reasons,

Van says, as it needs to withstand up to 30,000 pairs of feet throughout the showcase.

Up the staircase to the third floor one finds a nook, ideal for situating the family computer, and two spacious bedrooms —

one with a walk-in closet and a walk-out deck. The master, which features a large private deck, walk in closet and modern ensuite, is also on the third floor. Having all the bedrooms on the same level was important for the design team.

Buy into the dream Harris credits the generosity of Kamloops residents for the success, as well as the home itself for the increase in ticket sales.

“We’re really getting a sense that it’s a really nice design and it has what a lot of people are looking for in a family home. It’s a nice size, all of the bedrooms are upstairs, it’s got all the modern features and open living space, but it’s got some really ‘wow’ factors.

“Every Dream Home has people loving the design, but they are wowed by those special touches that were built into the home by the Canadian Home Builders Association, Homex and of course the TRU students and the architects who designed it.”

Each year the Kamloops YM-YWCA has two big community fundraisers: The Strong Kid Campaign and the Dream Home Lottery. The Strong Kid Campaign finished earlier in the year having met the goal of raising $55,000. The money goes to support families in need, giving financial assistance to any child or family in order to participate in a Y program.

murray mitchell/Kamloops Daily News

Tickets are selling quickly for the 17th annual Dream Home Lottery supporting the Kamloops YM-YWCA. Visit the home at 1363 Rockcress Dr. on Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. until June 30.

The Dream Home campaign stands to raise between $100,000 and $120,000, and those funds are used to support all Y programs and facilities.

The draw date is July 5 at 9 a.m., and ticket sales end on July 2. Last year tickets sold out early and there is every expecta-

tion tickets will sell out this year. There are only 10,500 tickets sold.

s the biggest fundraiser for the Kamloops YM-YWCA, there’s a lot depending on the success of the Dream Home Lottery.

And based on early ticket sales, the 17th annual fundraiser will be a resounding success, says YM-YWCA funds development and communications officer Darcy Harris.

“The response has been tremendous this year. The home is just gorgeous — it is beautifully built with lots of design features. When people get up there to see it they just want to buy a ticket.”

Ticket sales were well ahead for the 2013 home at 1363 Rockcress Drive in Dufferin’s new Hidden Trails subdivision.

Value packs of tickets, whereby books of five tickets sell for $400, sold out almost immediately, and within the first four weeks of selling, there were fewer than half the total tickets remaining.

“We are super pumped about our ticket sales now, and are really happy people are supporting us.“Value packs have never sold out so quickly.”
