July 1, 2006

Guenther Homes is pleased to announce that as of July 1, 2006 we have been approved as an “Energy Star^®” qualified home builder. That means that homes built by Guenther Homes can save you up to 40% in energy costs. This is accomplished by exceeding the building code requirements. Some of the measures taken to ensure a better energy rating are:

• Insulation upgrades
• Higher performance windows
• Better draft proofing
• More efficient heating, hot water and air-conditioning systems
• Sealed ducts for better air distribution

With an “Energy Star^®” home you will not only benefit by having lower energy bills but your home will also have a lower impact on the environment. By reducing energy consumption an “Energy Star^®” home will help reduce greenhouse gases and help to ensure clean air for our future.

For over twenty-five years, Canadians have relied on the EnerGuide label to compare and rate the energy consumption of household appliances and heating and cooling products. With the government backed quality assurance of the familiar “Energy Star^®” label and the improved comfort of your home you will also improve the resale value.
