Here's how it's done:

Homes that earn the ENERGY STAR are significantly more energy efficient than standard homes. We achieve this high efficiency for you by including the following features:

TIGHT CONSTRUCTION AND DUCTS
Advanced techniques for sealing holes and cracks in the home's "envelope" and in heating and cooling ducts help reduce drafts, moisture, dust, pollen, pests, and noise. A tightly sealed home improves comfort and indoor air quality while lowering utility and maintenance costs.

EFFECTIVE INSULATION
Properly installed and inspected insulation in floors, walls, and attics ensures even temperatures throughout the house, while using less energy. The result is lower utility costs and a quieter, more comfortable home.

EFFICIENT HEATING & COOLING EQUIPMENT
An energy-efficient, properly installed heating and cooling system uses less energy to operate, which reduces your utility bills. This system can also be quieter, reduce indoor humidity, and improve the overall comfort of your home.

HIGH PERFORMANCE WINDOWS
Energy-efficient windows employ advanced technologies, such as protective coatings and improved frame assemblies, to help keep heat in during the winter and out during the summer. These windows also block damaging ultravoilet sunlight that can discolor carpets and furnishing.

EFFICIENT PRODUCTS
Your home will also be equipped with ENERGY STAR qualified products - lighting fixtures, compact flourescent bulbs, ventilation fans, and appliances - that offer additional energy savings.

INDEPENDENT TESTING
While it is easy to claim that homes are energy efficient, we back up that claim with verification by an independent Home Energy Rater. The Rater conducts on-site inspections and testing to verify the performance of the energy efficiency features in your home.
