COVID-19 has changed the way many of us live and work. At Sawlor Built Homes, the health and safety of our customers, contractors and staff is of utmost importance, and so we’ve been adjusting to this “new normal.” If you’re looking to build a home, what does this mean for you?
The 10-year challenge has been all the rage on social media, where people compare themselves now to who they were a decade ago. If we were to look at how energy efficient practices have evolved in the homebuilding industry these past 10 years, today’s standards would be the clear winner.
The home building industry is continually looking to improve its practices, and the shift towards net zero and net zero ready is one way it’s doing just that.
If you envision your future home as a place family and friends can gather comfortably, you’ll want to discuss a few key elements with your builder.
Simply put, a home built with energy efficient practices performs better. It’s more comfortable to live in, it’s better for your health and the environment, and it saves you money on your energy bills.
