Green Building
There are currently more than 70 local and regional programs for determining what it means to be green or a High Performance House in the United States but the two main guidelines are those established by the Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Program and the National Associations of Home Builders (NAHB). More guidelines and programs are in the works including The National Green Building Standard accredited by ANSI. At EBS we firmly believe in building “Green” and are pleased to offer customers:
- LEED certified homes,
- Homes that meet the NHBA Green Home Building Guide Lines,
- Energy Star qualified homes, and
- Natural Timber Frame Homes built in the vernacular.
