The fire hall was the first in Canada to receive CaGBC Zero Carbon Building (ZCB) – Design certification, and is LEED v4 Gold certified. Design strategies include an airtight envelope, efficient air and water heat recovery systems, and a low carbon mechanical system that utilizes a geo-exchange field with ground source heat pumps. The design reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 99.7%, decreases energy demand, and enhances user comfort compared to its predecessor.
