Demystifying Energy Star Home Certification: What Benefits Does Energy Star Give to Homeowners?

Visitors to our Balancing Rock Village townhomes for sale in Holliston often ask us what it really means that the units are Energy Star-certified. After all, all the mumbo jumbo about cellulose insulation and thermal-resistant windows can make anyone's head spin.

Using a host of techniques and home products, such as better air sealing, higher quality insulation, double hung windows, and advanced ventilation systems, Energy Star certified homes offer greater comfort and lower costs.

The three important benefits of Energy Star certification are:
* Vastly lower heating costs. Reduced air leakage can bring dramatic cost savings while adding to the effectiveness of the insulation. For those who are downsizing, this is a great choice because they're also saving considerably on heating costs.
* Greater comfort. Increased insulation levels reduce loss of heat in the winter and cold in the summer. These homes are warmer in winter, cooler in summer, and also quieter.
* Better air quality. Mechanical ventilation ensures healthy indoor air quality at all times of the year.
