In a number of earlier posts I outlined Mid-Atlantic Builders’ Energy$mart program in an effort to demonstrate our commitment to building quality homes that exceed industry expectations and standards. I’d like to review some of the benefits you would enjoy by owning a Mid-Atlantic home under our new Energy$mart program.

With Energy$mart, your new Mid-Atlantic Builders home will run more efficiently costing you less on your monthly energy bills. With the newest construction
technology and techniques, your home will also be more durable and safer for your family.

Recently we discussed Mid-Atlantic Builders’ Energy Star partnership. To qualify as an Energy Star partner a home must have at least 15 percent greater efficiency than homes built under the current energy code. Every Mid-Atlantic Energy$mart Certified home surpasses the Energy Star standard and achieves up to 40 percent greater efficiency. In fact, every Mid-Atlantic Builders home is Energy Star qualified by a third-party professional—as opposed to the minimum compliance rate of 14.3 percent by other participating homebuilders.

Mid-Atlantic Builders also includes the new EPA Indoor airPLUS air quality package in all of its homes providing a healthier indoor environment—going above and beyond Energy Star’s minimum requirements. These additional features are employed to ensure that each new home’s air is cleaner and healthier, and that the home will always be as comfortable as possible.

Additionally, Mid-Atlantic Builders received the NAHB Research Center Green Building Certification, which means that our program is 100 percent compliant with the highest standards and objectively certified by third-party inspectors. In order to receive this certification, each home must be tested twice for energy, water, and resource efficiency, for improved air quality and for reduced environmental impact.

Clearly Mid-Atlantic Builders is committed to building the highest quality home for you and your family. These features may cost a little more up front, but isn’t your family worth it?
