Sunrise Custom Homes endeavors to be an environmentally conscious builder. Whether your goals are to reduce long term costs resulting from an energy efficient home, or if you are seeking to build a LEED certified construction project, Sunrise Custom Homes can design, and build your home with your ideal specifications.
One of the goals of building “green” is more efficiency in the way your home uses energy. This can be accomplished with simple changes such as LED lighting, water sense faucets, and ENERGY STAR® appliances. The next phase involves the incorporation of environmental controls such as geothermal HVAC systems, energy efficient window upgrades, or solar energy options can yield even greater energy savings.
The design of your home, how it is incorporated into the building site, and the use of eco-friendly products and materials are other “green” construction or remodeling aspects that can enhance the environmental quality of your home, while reducing the environmental impact. Non-toxic materials such as natural fiber insulation, zero VOC paints and natural flooring options can increase the indoor air quality of your home while reducing your home’s carbon footprint.
Making the choice to incorporate “green” building techniques or materials into your new custom home or custom remodeling project is money well spent, often resulting in a 30-80% reduction in energy usage.
