Sustainability Features at North Oak
Our commitment to sustainability starts right in
our community.
At North Oak, we understand the responsibility that we have in our community to reduce the carbon footprint of our buildings while also maintaining our track record of providing exceptional value to our homeowners. With this in mind, we set out to design a low-carbon community energy system that benefits from energy sharing between buildings and leverages the proven benefits of geoexchange heating and cooling.
This means that residents at North Oak will have a premium, high-performance energy system that reduces operational carbon emissions by up to 70% while providing reliable energy costs and reduced maintenance for the condo corporation.

For us, sustainability isn't just about being environmentally conscious. It's about the actions we take to invest in building a sustainable future. Our goal is to reduce natural resources to minimize waste and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while continuing to providing customers with modern spaces to live, work and play. It's our priority today - and it will continue to be in the future. We're focused on building better communities, one home at a time - and sustainability is a big part of what defines "better". Creating spaces that promote comfort, cost savings, health and community connections is something that we're committed to.
