WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BUILD GREEN?
there is a lot of buzz (and confusion!) around this term. For us it means:
creating a dwelling that has healthier air
Following the steps for Green Built Certification, no cheap shortcuts
reduction of construction impact on the environment
PLANTING A MINIMUM OF 250 TREES FOR EVERY HOME WE BUILD
We use a third party company to perform the following tests to certify our process :
Blower Door Test
HVAC Duct Test
Energy model for energy star certification
Bath and Exhaust fan tests
INSULATION INSPECTION
As a company we do our best during the building process to:
Eliminate waste
Look for areas to help reduce power/building costs
Use local vendors
Recycle cardboard/building materials
use led lighting and other Green technology
We also listen to our customers. Each customer has specific goals that we help achieve.
