ENERGY EFFICIENT

What does it mean to you?


• Reduced green house gases

• Environmentally friendly materials

• Less energy loss

• Real energy savings


Join Artique in its commitment to a better and friendlier way of life.


WHAT MAKES AN ENERGY EFFICIENT HOME?


•  Tight Construction and Ductwork

Advanced techniques for heating and cooling ducts help reduce drafts, moisture, pollen, dust, pests & noise.  A tightly sealed home improves comfort and indoor air quality while lowering utility and maintenance costs.


•  Effective Insulation

Property installed insulation in floors, walls and attics ensures even temperatures throughout the house while using less energy.  The result is lower utility costs and a quieter, more comfortable home.


•  Effective Heating and Cooling Equipment

An energy efficient, property installed heating and cooling system uses less energy to operate which reduces your utility bills.


•  High Performance Windows

Energy efficient windows employ advanced technologies such as protective

coatings and improved frame assemblies to help keep heat in during the winter and out during the summer. These windows also block damaging ultraviolet sunlight.


•  Efficient Products

Your home may also be equipped with ENERGY STAR qualified products such

as lighting fixtures, compact fluorescent bulbs, ventilation fans and appliances that offer additional energy savings.


•  Independent Testing

While it is easy to claim that homes are energy efficient, ARTIQUE CUSTOM

HOMES backs that up with verification by an independent HOME ENERGY RATER The rater conducts onsite inspections and testing to verify the performance of the energy effident features in your home.

You will receive a copy of th is rating and verification at closing!

We want you to love your new home AND love the experience of building it!
