- Energy-efficient lighting
- Solar panels
- High-performance windows
- Rainwater recovery systems
- High R-value insulation
- Air exchange systems (improves air quality)
- Air sealing around windows, doors, electrical outlets, and vents
Benefits to you: By implementing green building technologies, all of the efficient features and elements work together to lower energy consumption keeping your costs down, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and shrinking the home’s carbon footprint.
