What makes an Ivey home more energy efficient than other homes?
We’ve been talking about energy efficiency all month long, but what makes an Ivey home more energy-efficient than other homes? Along with the prestigious ENERGY STAR label, there is more.
Ivey builds each home with a whole house and homesite approach, keeping in mind the best orientation of the floor plan to the layout of the heating and air system in the home for the best energy efficiency. The HVAC system in the home is the most important piece of equipment to keep the home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. This is vital for an Ivey Homes’ wall-to-wall comfort benefit!
Another difference in an Ivey home is the third-party energy rating and testing done on every single-family home and townhome we build. A HERS rating or score gives your home a “miles per gallon” of energy efficiency, this can make a huge deal in your monthly utility cost! The lower the HERS score the more efficient a home is.
