Long before “green” became the industry buzzword, Elite Homes implemented techniques and used products we simply called “efficient”. In the 1980’s Elite’s President, Joe Pusateri, studied ways to build a more energy efficient home. Joe wanted Elite Homes’ customers to not only get a good value in the price of their home, but also wanted customers to realize the best cost for their home. The cost of a home over time is the total of your monthly mortgage payments, your monthly utility bills, and the maintenance dollars you spend on your home.
Elite Homes strives to keep on top of the Green Building movement. We are making our Green Building official by partnering with Energy Star to build every home with Energy Star Certification. Below are several ways Elite builds Energy Star Certified homes:
Effective Insulation
High-Performance Windows
Advanced Framing Techniques
Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment
Lighting and Appliances
Third-Party Verification
We continue to be on the cutting edge of green practices and products. The truth is, we have been building energy efficient homes since day one, and continue to improve our techniques and products to remain a leader in the home building industry.
