Building Green

One of our main goals at HomeHeadquarters is to offer an environmentally friendly home to our customers. We can do this by using Green Building Methods, which require fewer resources then conventional homes. This is done with the use of more efficient floor plans, framing methods and a reduced amount of wasted building materials. We take advantage of passive solar heating in the winter and cross ventilation in the summer. Not only do some of the methods we use help to reduce monthly expenses for our home owners, but by using energy efficient lighting, appliances and windows, we help the environment by reducing energy consumption.
Throughout your home both inside and out, products such as premium caulking, new insulated fiberglass exterior doors and Energy Star Compliant insulation are additional ways we help reduce the use of our valuable resources. But we don’t stop there. All windows and exterior doors are wrapped and sealed. All exterior receptacles and switches are also sealed. We use 7/16 sheathing with a thermal house wrap on the exterior of all our homes. Energy efficient Heating and Cooling Systems are professionally designed for maximum efficiency. We seal all factory installed ductwork with UL 181 rated tape and no ductwork is installed in exterior walls. Using an energy saving 50 gallon water heater and insulating all factory water supply lines is still another way we reduce energy consumption. By constructing your home in our factory, we reduce the number of trips to your site. This not only reduces the amount of fuel needed, it also reduces the emissions that pollute the air we breathe.
HomeHeadquarters goal and responsibility is to continue to search for ways and to continue to use energy reducing methods to play a vital role in building a better home for a better tomorrow.
