Advanced framing techniques that include 2 × 6 exterior walls, engineered fl ooring systems, waterproofi ng techniques, and a fi ve check leak prevention system place your home among the most durable in the nation. All 4tress™ homes meet stringent requirements for strength, durability, moisture resistance, and sound attenuation.

Save time, energy and money with EnerWize™.Enerwize™ sets a new standard for home energy effi ciency by far surpassing the requirements and effi ciency ratings of homes built to Energy Star specifi cations. In addition, Enerwize™ homes are over 100% more energy effi cient than the average existing home, which means an Enerwize™ home will have energy costs that are less than half those of an equivalently sized existing home. By buying an Enerwize™ home, you’re not only saving money, you’re helping our environment by reducing the carbon footprint of your home.
The EnerWize™ brand is synonymous with comfort, savings and peace of mind. Features such as 16 SEER air conditioners, variable speed blowers, tankless water heaters, specially sealed ducts, and proprietary techniques combine to provide an average HERS (Home Energy Rating System) score at or below 52. That means you can expect a utility bill that will be about 48% less than a typical new home.
