High Efficiency Homes are better for everyone.

Eco Friendly Homes Are No Fad

At Fleishman Construction Services Inc., we’re committed to building quality homes that are friendly to the environment. Building a ‘green home’ isn’t a fad. The benefits of owning a high efficiency home include lower utility bills, less harmful effects to the environment, and in some cases higher home values.

It’s Easy Being Green

An environmentally friendly home starts with the site. If existing trees are on the chosen property, as many are left as possible to help shade the home in the summer and block winter winds. The natural result of trees and shrubs on the property is lowered air conditioning and heating bills. Other landscaping options can help the efficiency of a home when they double as wind breaks as well.

Another factor in home efficiency is ensuring that the structure is properly insulated. This is an area where being particular matters. Not only are drafty homes uncomfortable, but they’re expensive to heat and cool. From top to bottom, Fleishman Construction Services Inc. makes sure everything is buttoned up tight. We’ll also recommend energy efficient windows, doors, siding, appliances, lighting, and heating and cooling systems so that every aspect of your home works together fluidly to be eco friendly.

Renewable Resources

Fleishman Construction Services Inc. supports the use of geothermal heating and cooling systems and recommends geothermal installation in every new home. In a residential application, geothermal utilizes a series of ‘loops’ to heat and cool the home interior by using renewable energy that comes from the earth’s core. Homeowners with geothermal systems can expect to see a radical difference in heating and cooling bills with as much as a 70% drop during the summer months and a 50% drop in the winter months over conventional HVAC systems. Geothermal is a safe, comfortable, affordable, and environmentally friendly way to regulate the temperature inside of a home.

Building It Green

Fleishman Construction Services Inc. is proud to be a member of Center on Sustainable Communities (COSC) and will continue to provide ‘green’ options to all of our clients. Building Green is better for the environment, it’s better for our communities, and it’s better for the homeowner. We encourage you to ‘build it green’.
