Sprout Tiny Homes has inked a contract with Aspen Skiing Company to build 34 more commercial-grade tiny homes to meet the ever expanding demand for affordable employee housing. The new contract brings the total number of homes to 40 that will be deployed in ASC's Basalt, Colorado location. The new 40 homes will feature construction methods and HVAC technology to meet the extreme weather conditions of the Aspen valley. Sprout homes will feature chemical free interiors and engineered ERV systems to provide fresh air and a healthy living environment for ASC residents. Aspen Skiing Company contracted and collaborated with Sprout to design and deploy six prototype units in the fall of 2017 as a test to see if tiny homes could meet the needs and requirements of providing affordable housing solutions to both ASC and its residents. The test was successful for ASC and its residents, and because the units were manufactured by Sprout in its Southeastern Colorado manufacturing facility, didn't exasperate the demand on Aspen area housing if the homes were built by local contractors that are experiencing rocketing labor costs compounded by the lack of affordable housing for local employees. The Sprout homes represent an energy efficient, flexible and affordable housing solution because of their high quality construction methods and ability to be easily and quickly deployed. The homes will be delivered fully furnished including living room furniture, 2 fully furnished sleeping lofts and 1 main level bedroom, window coverings, wall-mounted flat screen smart TV, full kitchen with dishwasher, 1 1/4 bath, generous living room, built in storage lockers, infrared radiant floor heat, and state of the art HVAC and fresh air systems. The homes are move-in ready upon delivery and connection to the local utilities.
