green building
Why build green?
Energy rates have increased 50% over the last 5 year alone. Investing in energy-efficient building practices—whether in a remodel or a new home—offers significant cost savings and health benefits. High-performance construction reduces energy consumption, lowering utility bills and increasing long-term affordability. Beyond the individual benefits of a high-efficiency building, the environmental and societal impacts are also significant. Passive house certified homes last longer and use less energy, contributing to a better future for everyone.
How to build green?
Airtight construction, advanced insulation, and energy recovery ventilation (ERV) help maintain consistent indoor temperatures while improving air quality by filtering out pollutants, allergens, and excess moisture. Additionally, sustainable materials and passive design strategies create healthier, more comfortable living spaces with fewer toxins and better humidity control. By prioritizing energy efficiency, homeowners can enjoy a more durable, low-carbon, and cost-effective home that promotes well-being and long-term resilience.
