Benefits of ENERGY STAR® Qualified San Antonio Homes
There are many benefits when you purchase a new home that has been certified as ENERGY STAR.
Homeowners have added confidence from the government that their new home builder has followed all regulatory
energy-efficient guidelines. ENERGY STAR homes provide a lower ownership cost to the home buyer through reduced utility bills.
New ENERGY STAR homes perform better by reducing air leaks and by controlling
moisture, pollution, and noise.
A new home with the ENERGY STAR label will retain its value far better than the standard home.
Last, the amount of energy your new home produces will be far less and much better for the environment.
Confidence
All ENERGY STAR Qualified new homes are certified to meet the EPA's strict guidelines for energy efficiency. This exemplary performance is verified by an independent third party.
Lower Ownership Cost
Compared with standard homes, ENERGY STAR Qualified new homes use substantially less energy for heating, cooling, and hot water heating. Homeowners can expect to save about $200–$400 annually on their utility bills.
Better Performance
The energy-efficient features of ENERGY STAR Qualified new homes keep out excessive heat, cold, and noise, and ensure consistent temperatures between and across rooms-making these homes more comfortable to live in.
Smart Investment
By choosing a home with the ENERGY STAR label, you can be confident that it will have an increasingly valued feature when the time comes to sell.
Environment Protection
By purchasing an ENERGY STAR Qualified new home, you are joining millions of consumers who have changed to ENERGY STAR, helping our nation reduce our energy needs and building a cleaner environment for the future.
