What is Green Building??
Green building is the practice of increasing the efficiency with which buildings use resources — energy, water, and materials — while reducing building impacts on human health and the environment, through better siting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal — the complete building life cycle.
Over Time, Green Homes:
- Lower Operating Costs
- Reduce Maintenance
- Provide Healthy Comfortable Living
- Benefit the Environment
Green Building through the Certified Green Professional Program targets Seven Areas of the home using the Whole House Approach which are:
- Lot Design, Preparation and Development
- Resource Efficiency
- Energy Efficiency
- Water Efficiency
- Indoor Environmental Quality
- Operation, Maintenance, and Homeowner Education
- Global Impact
With that being said, Penn Homes is in a select group of Builders, nationally, that is Certified Green and participates in Green Building.
Green Building doesn't have to mean spending more money either, some of the sensible Green Practices actually reduce costs!! Contact a Penn Homes representative to discuss Green Opportunities with your next home purchase. Let our Knowledge be your asset by adding Green value to your home.
