We are proud to offer new homes that have earned the ENERGY STAR® label.
ENERGY STAR qualified new homes are substantially more energy efficient
than homes built to the minimum code requirements. Our ENERGY STAR qualified
new homes are independently verified by a third-party Home Energy Rater to
ensure they meet ENERGY STAR energy efficiency guidelines. These homes are
better for the environment and better for you.
Benefits of owning one of our ENERGY STAR qualified new homes include:
A Label Backed by the Government
All ENERGY STAR qualified new homes are certified to meet EPA's strict
guidelines for energy efficiency. This exemplary performance is verified
by an independent third party.
Lower Utility Costs
Compared with standard homes, ENERGY STAR qualified new homes use
substantially less energy for heating, cooling, and hot water heating.
Homeowners can expect to save about $200–$400 annually on their utility
bills.
More Comfortable/Quieter Homes
The energy-efficient features of ENERGY STAR qualified new homes keep
out excessive heat, cold, and noise, and ensure consistent temperatures
between and across rooms-making these homes more comfortable to live in.
Helping to Create a Better Future
By purchasing an ENERGY STAR qualified new home, you are joining millions
of consumers who have changed to ENERGY STAR, helping our nation reduce
our energy needs and building a cleaner environment for the future.
Features of our ENERGY STAR qualified new homes include:
- Effective Insulation — Properly installed insulation that meets or
exceeds national code requirements helps achieve even temperatures
throughout the house while using less energy. The result is lower utility
costs and a quieter, more comfortable home.
- High-Performance Windows — Advanced window coatings help keep heat in
during winter and out during summer. They also block damaging ultraviolet
sunlight that can discolor carpets and furniture.
- Tight Construction and Tight Ducts — Attention to detail by sealing all
holes, cracks, and seams in ducts and construction assemblies helps
eliminate drafts, moisture, dust, pests, and pollen. This improves
comfort and the quality of indoor air, while lowering maintenance
costs.
- Energy-Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment — More efficient and
properly sized heating and cooling systems use less energy, which
reduces utility bills. These systems also turn on and off less frequently,
removing more humidity and providing better comfort.
