Not sure what Building Green Means?

Green Building means: Building Homes that are Durable, Energy Efficient, and won’t make you sick after you move in!

It also means using less materials and making better use of the ones you buy.

We can do this by engineering and designing homes that we build….

            Efficiently

            To last a long time

            To use less water and energy

            To be healthy to live in

 

Reduced Energy consumption can make a Green home more affordable to own. In fact our homes can save 50% or more in Utility Bills over a similar home built in 2004.

 

That’s what you would call a “Win–Win”

            Invest your housing dollars more wisely

            Help the environment

            Live more comfortably

            Have guaranteed energy savings

All of which can make your Green Home easier to resell in the future. Because from now on any home that is not built Green might be obsolete!

Going Green has never made more sense!

Here’s more Green than you may have seen.

More ways a Fred Wilson Home is a better investment…

Money-saving Fluorescent Lighting

We save you money with compact fluorescent technology to consume up to 75% less electricity than standard incandescent lighting.

“0” or Low VOC Paints

Paint can reduce the quality of indoor air. Fred Wilson Homes uses low Volatile Organic Compound paints which give off reduced emissions and help maintain better indoor air quality.

Manifold Water Systems Using Pex Piping

We looked at the alternatives to copper plumbing and came up with products that don’t condensate in walls easily, don’t corrode and resist that old “bang, bang, bang” sound known as water hammer. It delivers Hot water to the fixture you are using in less than 10 seconds without the use of circulating pumps.

Insulation

Our Demilac open cell foam is formaldehyde free. It is sprayed in the outside walls and up the roof rake filling every air leak as it is placed.

Third-Party Energy Audits

A Manual J loading plan is engineered on each individual home based on its location and orientation. A certified Auditor then tests your new home for compliance to meet the very tough Federal tax credit program.

Allergy-reducing Filters

Our superior pleated filters are rated at MERV 10 and filter out 70%of all pollen, allergens, mold, dust and other breathable particles to help reduce family allergies.

Environmentally-friendly Refrigerant

We help protect the earth's ozone layer by using R-410 refrigerant in our 16 SEER A/C systems.
