New Home Features (cont’d)
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.
