A green building, also known as a sustainable building, is a structure that is designed, built, renovated, operated, or reused in an ecological and resource-efficient manner.
Green buildings are designed to meet certain objectives such as protecting and preserving your health, using energy, water, and other resources more efficiently; and reducing the overall impact to the environment. Green buildings are sited, designed, constructed, and operated to enhance the well-being of their occupants and support a healthy community and natural environment. In practical terms, green building is a whole-systems-approach to building.
A green building may cost more up front, but saves through lower operating costs over the life of the home. The green building approach applies a project life cycle cost analysis for determining the appropriate up-front expenditure. This analytical method calculates costs over the useful life of the asset.
These and other cost savings can only be fully realized when they are incorporated at the project’s conceptual design phase with the assistance of an integrated team of professionals. The integrated systems approach ensures that the building is designed as one system rather than a collection of stand-alone systems.
We offer many green building strategies to achieve a lower operating cost up to and including Net Zero. They include: Spray foam insulation, Sealed crawl spaces, Geothermal HVAC, ERV, high seer HVAC equipment, Heat pump hot water heaters, a tighter building envelope utilizing advanced framing and insulation techniques and more!
