Why ENERGY STAR?
Would you like a home that’s wonderfully comfortable with healthy indoor air and no drafts? A home with a comfortable bonus room, low energy bills and one where you don’t have to turn on the heat or air as soon as the temperature changes? A home that you know is well-built and energy efficient, with attention to detail in the areas you can’t see – and you know it is because an independent company checked it at several stages during the building process? You can have this kind of home – it’s an ENERGY STAR qualified home.
ENERGY STAR qualified homes are:
- More comfortable
- Healthier, with better indoor air quality
- More durable, with less rot and mold
- Quieter
- Less expensive to run.
- Typically 20% to 30% more efficient than standard homes
- Better for the environment
Many electric companies now reward ENERGY STAR homes; Progress Energy and Duke Energy both offer a 5% discount on electric bills for ENERGY STAR homes. This discount runs for the life of the house so it’s a great marketing plus at resale time. Also, if your ENERGY STAR home has natural gas appliances, PSNC offers a discount.
With an ENERGY STAR qualified home, you can have peace of mind knowing that your home is well-built, healthier for your family, is easier on the environment – and all of this with lower energy bills.
