Village Homes Built Green and Long Term Savings

At Village Homes, every home we build is BUILT GREEN. For you, that means Long Term Savings
	Low-E Windows The benefits of Low-E windows: 36% more efficient than average new windows reduce monthly heating and cooling bills help protect against fabric fading less prone to condensation block over 59% of summer sun heat make the home more comfortable
	Water Conservation Taking advantage of technological advances to eliminate waste and reduce the need for water leads to greater water conservation. Water is a non-renewable resource; water restricting faucets help homeowners conserve water.
	Precision Mechanical Sizing Using advanced processes to calculate the optimal size of a mechanical system results in a more efficient and comfortable home. Most home heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems are too big for the home – often by as much as 40%.
	Setback Thermostat A setback thermostat can be programmed to turn the heat down when you leave for the day and turn it back up just before you get home, helping you: Save money – by reducing your utility bill Reduce air pollution – the less energy needed, the less pollution created Save time – you don’t have to remember when to turn the heat up or down
	High-Efficiency Heating/Cooling Systems The duct work is sealed with mastic (gray substance). That, combined with a high-efficiency furnace and non-ozone depleting refrigerant delivery system. Improves indoor comfort, saves you money and reduces outdoor air pollution.
	Sealed Combustion 90% Efficient Furnace Cleaner air – inside and out: Sealed combustion systems reduce the risk of harmful gases back-drafting into the home Our homes have the most energy efficient forced air furnace available on the market today, reducing energy consumption by 10-15%.
	A Well-Sealed Home Advanced sealing methods will virtually eliminate any cold (or hot) drafts from sneaking in the home during the winter (and summer) months, making it a comfortable place to live, while at the same time reducing energy bills.
