Clean Air
Breathe easy with high quality MERV-13 air filters, whole-home or attic fans, and improved ventilation, including features such as HRVs (heat-recovery ventilators) and ERVs (energy-recovery ventilators).
Energy Savings
Conscious Comfort homes can help the world and your wallet thanks to features like solar panels, high-efficacy lighting, and energy-saving kitchen appliances. Explore builds with natural gas or high-efficiency furnaces, windows with low-emissivity glass, water-saving plumbing fixtures, and tankless water heaters, or go even further with water-conserving landscaping or even accommodation for an electric car charger.
Insulation and Temperature Control
Loving your room temperature goes beyond a controllable thermostat. With features ranging from radiant-barrier roofing and reflective roof tiles to insulated storage spaces and garage doors, you can enhance home comfort from top to bottom—and wall-to-wall too, thanks to 2x6 construction, sealed wood-to-wood penetrations, and one-coat stucco systems.
Testing and Certifications
To further ensure quality and comfort, choose from homes that have undergone third-party certifications and evaluations. Find homes that are Environments for Living (EFL) platinum-certified, or select one that has been Home Energy Rating System (HERS) tested, blower-door tested, or insulation-inspected to ensure a quality build.
