WHAT IS A HIGH-PERFORMANCE HOME?

A High-Performance Home is thoughtfully designed and constructed to deliver greater energy efficiency, durability, comfort, and long-term value than a conventionally built home.

IMPROVED ENERGY EFFICIENCY

High-Performance Homes are designed to reduce energy consumption through better insulation, efficient systems, and carefully planned building envelopes, helping lower long-term utility costs.

GREATER YEAR-ROUND COMFORT

Advanced construction techniques help maintain more consistent indoor temperatures while reducing drafts, cold spots, and temperature fluctuations throughout the home.

BUILT TO LAST

Durable materials, thoughtful construction, and attention to detail help ensure High-Performance Homes stand the test of time while reducing future maintenance concerns.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE BUILDING PRINCIPLES

High-Performance Homes often incorporate:

  • Improved insulation and airtight construction

  • Efficient heating and cooling systems

  • High-performance windows and doors

  • Consideration of the building envelope and wall assembly

  • Sustainable and energy-conscious building materials

  • Future-ready energy solutions such as solar rough-ins or renewable energy systems

Together, these features work to create homes that are efficient, comfortable, durable, and environmentally conscious.
