Building
green is one of the hottest topics in the building market today. Many builders
are building green, with some using a few simple green products to others
building passive solar homes. At GreenStone Homes we are committed to building
the most efficient and greenest home we can. Call it our small part in helping
to preserve our precious resources for future generations.
Here is a list of green options and standard features in each
of our the homes we build.
- Extensive use of engineered lumber products.
- Energy Star Low-E windows.
- Energy Star Low density spray foam insulation, which is emission free.
- Energy Star appliances and fixtures.
- Optional On-demand tankless hot water heaters.
A green builder cannot be defined by just the products they
use. Positive steps to reduce waste and other practices have to be used, to
truly be a green builder.
- At the end of each construction phase we pick up any reusable, non-returnable
material for future use.
- All copper, steel or other metal scraps are collected for recycling.
- Making sure our expert craftsmen and subcontractors deposit their food
waste in a trash bin.
At GreenStone Homes we are doing our part to make the world a greener place.
