Benefits of Owning a BuiltGreen By Design Home
The principal reason people buy a "green built" home is for living in it - there are so many advantages for the present and the future that these homes are valued by their owners as a great investment and as their "dream come true home" with better living assured for themselves and their families. Here are some of the reasons why owners prize BuiltGreen by Design homes:
Save Money and Resources
With natural gas and water prices on the rise, properly-sized and highly-efficient furnaces, fixtures, appliances and instant water heaters save money every month. They also require less maintenance than standard units.
Energy Star® appliances - use much less electricity and water than average appliances, and make a smaller dent in your family's utility budget.
Optimally-insulated walls and roofs are an integral part of an energy-efficient and comfortable building shell.
Draft-free, well-insulated low-emissivity (Low-e) windows make a significant contribution to the overall performance of the building envelope. And since they resist the transfer of cold air, they expand the area of useable, comfortable space in a room.
Low-flow faucets, shower heads, and dual-flush toilets perform at least as well as their water-wasting counterparts, and markedly cut back on the household's increasingly-expensive water usage.
Energy efficient electric heaters allow each room in the house to be individually temperature controlled, thus saving heat in unused areas. These heaters take advantage of renewable hydroelectric power which is abundant in the Pacific NW, providing the lowest power costs in the country.
Natural yard treatments combine drought-resistance with natural beauty, and marry creativity to the goal of conserving water with the inclusion of hearty native plant selection.
Well-insulated doors are as stylish as any other, but offer the added benefit of correcting this thermal Achilles-heel of many building envelopes.
Durability and Low-maintenance
A properly drained and insulated foundation is a key factor avoid unwanted moisture below grade.
Ventilated, well-sealed crawlspaces are necessary to ensure the proper management of moisture throughout the home.
Outdoor decking and landscaping products made from low-impact polymers and composite recycled products not only look better than many types of lumber, but they also wear several times longer and require much less maintenance over time.
Engineered lumber (logs) is used throughout the home's frame, and providing a straighter, stronger, more consistent structure that protects forests by using only fast-growing, rapidly renewable tree species.
Tough, long-lasting exterior finishes like metal roofing and fire proofing for durability, ensure that a home endures for generations, and that it requires less upkeep over those years as well.
Even simple items like downspout extensions on gutters provide an effective means of keeping water away from foundations and basement walls.
Healthy and Comfortable Indoor Environments
Energy efficient electric heaters in each room and vented water heaters mean protection for your family from combustion gasses that might otherwise be introduced to indoor air space.
Careful attention to the location and particular performance qualities of windows throughout the home contribute to not only increased energy efficiency, but also to protection from overheating, glare, and damage to furnishings from excessive solar radiation.
Flooring made from cork, Marmoleum, an all natural product, and carpets made from natural materials or from less toxic materials that look great, wear like iron, and improve the quality of the air you breathe every day. Cork flooring is easy to clean and easy to walk on.
Cabinets made with low volatile organic compound (VOC) materials are a stylish assurance that the air in your home is as free from these chemical as possible.
All finishes are top-of-the-line. They include products that perform better than average while emitting none of the chemical by-products of their counterparts, in the process making for a more beautiful and healthy home.
The Carriage House is isolated from the main house, you can rest assured that what comes out of your car won't go into your lungs.
