Energy Efficient Builders
In this article, we spotlight builders who are setting the standard for energy-efficient construction in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. These professionals stand out as leaders in their field by going above and beyond the basic building codes, crafting homes with superior energy efficiency and performance. Their commitment is not mandated but driven by a deep sense of pride in their craft and the value it brings to homeowners.
Why These Builders Stand Apart
While some construction companies cut costs by adhering only to the bare minimum legal requirements, the builders featured here make a conscious choice to invest more—both in time and resources—to create high-performance homes. What truly sets them apart is their ability to back their claims with proof. These homes are certified under prestigious programs like BUILT TO SAVE® and ENERGY STAR®, providing verifiable evidence of their superior quality.
Certification under BUILT TO SAVE® or ENERGY STAR® requires independent inspections during construction and rigorous testing after completion by a licensed home energy Rater. These third-party evaluations ensure the home meets stringent high-performance standards.
The High-Performance Home Advantage
Choosing a certified high-performance home means more than just energy savings. Itoffers a range of benefits, including:
- Healthier Indoor Air: Reduced allergens and improved air quality.
- Enhanced Comfort: Consistent temperatures and minimized drafts.
- Tighter Construction: Better durability and fewer maintenance concerns.
- Properly Installed Insulation: Maximized energy efficiency
- Utility Bill Savings: Lower monthly energy costs.
Additionally, homeowners gain peace of mind knowing their investment is backed by a recognized certification, which can increase resale value if they decide to sell in the future. By choosing a high-performance home, you’re investing in comfort, efficiency, and long-term value—a decision you can feel good about for years to come.
