These days, everyone is thinking of the future and how the things we do today impact tomorrow. Compass Luxury Homes is no different.   When building a new home, we think of you, your children, the environment and how our practices affect each of these areas at the time you move in and what the effects will be years down the road.
 
The team at Compass Luxury Homes is proud to offer new homes that are Energy Star-certified and built in a sustainable, environmentally friendly and green way. Through a whole-building approach outlined by the U.S. Green Building Council and their Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System, Dave Awde (our Green Construction Expert) has prioritized the sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality that our clients are looking for.
 
After all, enjoying your home shouldn’t put a burden on the natural surroundings you love so much.
 
 


Quick Facts:
  • Over 50% of the NAHB members who are building over 80% of U.S. homes incorporate green practices into their home development.
  • ENERGY STAR® qualified homes use significantly less energy than standard homes on heating/cooling and water heating/delivery, saving between $200 and $400 a year.
  • Energy-efficient homes have more consistent temperatures in and between each room and better quality of air overall, increasing home durability
  • Almost 3,500 homebuilder-EPA partnerships have resulted in the building of over 750,000 ENERGY STAR® certified homes. By 2010 there will be over 2 million of these homes.
  • 16% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions are generated by energy use in homes. That’s more than your car!

  • Tight Construction and Ducts - Drafts, moisture, dust, pollen and noise can be reduced by properly sealing holes and cracks in the home's "envelope" and ducts system, also helping the climate of the home overall.
