As a high performance builder, we strive to
provide the highest quality service and product to all our customers. That's
why we participate in the Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Homes program—a program
designed to help homeowners know and understand they are building a high
performance home that is comfortable, safe, durable and energy efficient. And
we can prove it.
WISCONSIN
ENERGY STAR HOMES
The
Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Homes program is a
simple
way for you to understand that the quality of your new home lies in the
details—details that you may not see. Like the safety of a power-vented water
heater. And the comfort and energy efficiency
provided
by properly installed insulation. Or the
convenience
of a quiet exhaust fan and how it
contributes to
indoor air quality. These are simple, inexpensive details that can help you
get the most comfortable, safe, durable and energy efficient new home
possible. Keep reading to learn more.
EXPERT
PARTNERSHIP
We
work closely with Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Homes consultants to create a home
environment that is safe,
comfortable,
durable and energy efficient. This is accomplished through site visits that
verify
construction
details, and performance tests to be sure that your home works as designed and
meets the Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Homes criteria.
DETAILS
MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
As with any major
purchase, you’re looking for quality in your new home. In a Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Home,
the quality is in the details—details you may not be aware of:
·
A
quality home built
with greater attention to detail
·
Properly
installed
insulation and draft-free construction
·
The
ability to control
or enhance indoor air quality by managing indoor moisture and airborne
pollutants
·
Added
safety,
because furnace, water heater and fireplace combustion by-products are exhausted
directly from the home
·
Added
durability,
because warm moist inside air, as well as rain and moisture from the outside,
is kept out of walls and attic spaces, preventing structural damage
·
Greater
energy efficiency,
including electrical as well as monthly space heating and cooling savings
BUILDING
SMARTER, BUILDING SAFER,
BUILDING
