All Steve Flint Custom Homes are built to meet or exceed Energy Star standards, and Steve Flint has earned the Certified Green Professional designation from the National Association of Home Builders. Green building is much more than just reducing a home’s environmental footprint. Homeowners can also realize direct benefits by owning a green home. Here are some of the primary benefits of owning a green home:
Lower Utility Costs:
Homeowners receive lower utility bills because of energy and water efficiency measures.
Increased Comfort:
Green homes have relatively even temperatures throughout the home, with fewer drafts and better humidity control.
Improved Environmental Quality:
Green building guidelines call for moisture control, air exchange filtration systems, and materials containing fewer chemicals – all of which contribute to a healthier indoor environment.
Enhanced Durability and Less Maintenance:
Green homes incorporate longer lasting building materials, greatly reducing maintenance and repair costs.
Personal Satisfaction:
Green building is good for the environment, good for people, and good for the future. Homeowners can feel good about doing their part to care for the world in which they live.
Green building comes in numerous shades of green and every effort helps to make a difference.
