What Exactly Is A “Green Home”?  

The term “green home” is thrown around quite a lot these days, which may leave homeowners  confused as to what this term really means. It is quite a simple concept, in that basically it  refers to a home that is designed to utilize and conserve energy regarding what is best for the  environment. This may include usage of sustainable or recycled construction materials,  implementing better insulation for indoor temperature regulation, and maximizing the use of  water or solar power to drive efficient energy output. Homes that are certified as green homes are recognized for their superior and measurable efforts to reduce waste, increase energy  efficiency, improve indoor air quality, conserve water, and protect the harmony and  biodiversity of our planet and ecosystem. 

But the good news is, you don’t have to live off the grid or build a brand-new home that is filled  with state-of-the-art sustainable technology in order to make an impactful difference. There are  always smart and simple changes that homeowners can make to protect and secure the health  of both your family and the environment.
