PathStone’s proposed Baird Road Apartments is a 76-unit apartment building for seniors as a part of a larger development in Perinton, NY. Using air source heat pumps, shared ERVs, shared heat-pump water heaters, and roof-mounted solar, the project is designed to be fossil fuel free. The project achieves Net-Zero energy through PHIUS+2018, and features health and wellness through Enterprise Green Communities 2020 and WELL Certification. Additionally, the project prioritizes the use of low carbon materials and emphasizes resiliency with the inclusion of battery storage for demand control and backup systems. The project achieves this with no up-front out-of-pocket costs to the developer, and superior long term financial benefits. SCI serving as the CPHC and PHIUS+ Verifier on the project and conducted all WUFI modeling to guide design decisions around all insulation and mechanical systems.
