There are countless energy-efficient features that
Energy Star
qualified new homes have to offer. By the government-backed
program, here are a few other features that energy star qualified
new homes have to offer, which help protect the environment:
Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment:
* In addition to using less energy to operate, energy-efficient
heating and cooling systems can be quieter, reduce indoor humidity,
and improve the overall comfort of the home.
* Typically, energy-efficient equipment is also more durable and
requires less maintenance than standard models.
* Other benefits
include low utility bills and less risk of air quality
problems.
Lighting and Appliances:
* ENERGY STAR qualified homes may also be equipped with
ENERGY STAR qualified products &mdash lighting fixtures, compact
fluorescent bulbs, ventilation fans, and appliances, such as
refrigerators, dish washers, and washing machines.
* These ENERGY STAR qualified products provide additional energy
savings to the owner.
* Other benefits include enhanced performance, cost savings,
improved safety, durability and less time standing on ladders.
Third-Party Verification:
* With the help of independent Home Energy Raters, ENERGY STAR
builder partners choose the most appropriate energy-saving features
for their homes.
* Additionally, raters conduct onsite testing and inspections to
verify that the homes qualify as ENERGY STAR.
