What is an Energy Star Certified New Home?

Purchasing a new home is a big investment, so you want to be sure that it’s built to last. All Belmonte Homes are ENERGY STAR certified new homes, that means we utilize a fully-integrated approach to home building. This comprehensive method delivers systems that work together to provide better performance and an overall superior level of quality, especially when compared to most resale homes on the market today.

The ENERGY STAR label means that your new home has been designed and built to standards well above most other homes on the market today. It means better quality, better comfort, and better durability. It also means that your new home is a better value for today, and a better investment for tomorrow. And it means that your home has undergone a better process of inspections, testing, and verification to ensure that it meets strict requirements set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ENERGY STAR certified homes are at least 10% more energy efficient than homes built to code and achieve a 20% improvement on average.

Every ENERGY STAR certified new home also helps protect our environment. So far, these homes have helped to avoid greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those from more than 450,000 vehicles.

This better approach to building results in a new home that brings peace of mind, enduring quality, wall-to-wall comfort, and proven value. Your ENERGY STAR certified new home has simply been built better in every way. ENERGY STAR. It’s the little label with a big message: Better is Better.
