Altitude Adjustment | Episode 7 – Tight & Dry Building Envelope Details

From The Build Show.

In Episode 7 of Altitude Adjustment, Stephanie returns to Park City, Utah, where favorable weather has allowed the team to make major progress drying in the home and pushing the build forward. She walks viewers through the critical details behind the window and envelope systems, highlighting the use of Pella Reserve wood-clad windows for their customization, slim contemporary sightlines, and high-performance suitability for a mountain climate. She dives deep into the inspection-driven sequencing of ZIP System sheathing and Huber tapes, explaining why certain areas remain exposed and how precision taping contributes to both performance and visual confidence. Inside, Stephanie showcases standout design moments—including dramatic single-pane views, custom corner glass, and a spa-like primary bath—demonstrating how thoughtful window design enhances both aesthetics and energy efficiency. The episode wraps with a look at the home’s innovative Tesla solar shingle roof system, revealing how advanced materials and careful planning are coming together to seal the structure before winter sets in, marking an exciting turning point in the build.
