What makes an Energy Star Builder different?
Energy Star qualified homes are independently verified to be at least 30% more energy efficient than homes built to the 1993 national Model Energy Code or 15% more efficient than state energy code, whichever is more rigorous.* These savings are based on heating, cooling, and hot water energy use and are typically achieved through a combination of:

High performance windows,

Controlled air infiltration,

Upgraded heating and air conditioning systems,

Tight duct systems and

Upgraded water-heating equipment.

Energy Star qualified new homes achieve their energy savings through a variety of reliable and established technologies and building practices.

What is specifically done to a home to make it an Energy Star home?
Green building is accomplished by increasing the energy efficiency of a home through:

Tight Ducts

Improved Insulation

High Performance Windows

Energy Efficient Heating & Cooling Equipment

Tight construction reduces air infiltration. Our Energy Star qualified new homes feature tighter construction than that of homes built to the Model Energy Code. Tighter house construction can improve the energy efficiency, air quality, and comfort of your home by eliminating unwanted drafts.

Why buy an Energy Star home?
Tighter home construction can offer you:

Improved comfort - reduces drafts, noise, and moisture.

Improved indoor air quality - keeps dust, pollen, car exhaust, and insects out of the home.

Lower costs - reduces escape of conditioned air.
