"Make your
Home an Energy Star Home"
"When energy savings
are achieved throughout the house, the entire building can qualify
for the Energy Star Label. The EPA has published guidelines for
a variety of different types of homes, including single family
and multifamily duplexes and apartments; even modular and log
homes can qualify. The EPA lists the criteria needed to achieve
Energy Star Status, such as effective insulation, high performance
windows, tight construction and ducts, efficient heating and
cooling equipment, and the use of Energy Star lighting and appliances.
In order to complete the certification process, a licensed third
party must verify that these standards have been met. The construction
of Energy Star homes and the remodeling of older homes to meet
Energy Star guidelines have increased as more contractors become
familiar with these objectives."
