energy design and high efficiency infrastructure work together
to ensure that your home is more comfortable.

Energy bills can be
lowered and maintenance and replacement costs
reduced through
the use of materials, systems and appliances that
are energy
efficient, with higher durability, such as:

Heat
• Energy
Star Appliances
• Energy-Efficient
Lighting
• Photovoltaic

construction
of a home. However, indoor air pollution can be
eliminated or

Throughout
the construction process we reuse components of your
existing

of construction waste
• Use
of Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified lumber
and wood products
