Insulation- Closed-cell spray
foam, and cotton batts,
independent wall framing,
and concrete floors, all
aspects of a comprehensive
insulation program that
minimizes energy costs and
creates a quiet living environment.

Heating and Air- High
efficiency heating and air
conditioning units save money,
and reduce pollution.

Windows- Pella’s Designer
Series windows feature a
unique 3-pane system
accommodating an internal
blind or shade. They have a
29 U-factor, making them
30% more efficient than
standard windows. Metal
clad exteriors never need painting.

Bamboo Floors- Bamboo is
a very renewable material
classified as a timber grass.
It is beautiful and durable.

Paints- Low VOC (volatile
organic compounds) paints are
used to reduce chemical
compounds inside the home,
making the air in the home cleaner.

Wood- Finger jointed studs and
Engineered I-Joists require
significantly less lumber than
conventional, solid sawn lumber.
Standard lumber is not fully
matured when it is cut and installed
so it is prone to warping and bowing.
Walls built with finger jointed studs are
straighter, even when subjected to heat
and humidity. This helps eliminate nail
pops in drywall, and other related wall
problems. Engineered I-Joists are
stronger and lighter than 2” x 10” and
2” x 12” solid sawn lumber, and create
a more stable floor that is not prone to
the squeaks and bows associated with
traditional lumber.

Water Heaters- tankless water
heaters deliver endless amounts of
hot water and still perform up to
50% more efficiently than conventional
water heaters. Rather than maintaining
40 to 80 gallons of water at high
temperatures as in traditional water
heaters, tankless water heaters heat the water only as needed.
