PIPER HOMES Partners with U.S. EPA?s ENERGY STAR® Program
|
Bedminster, PA ? Piper Homes is proud to announce its partnership with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency?s
ENERGY STAR Program. Through this partnership, PIPER HOMES will provide homebuyers with energy efficient new homes
that save money on utility bills, offer greater comfort and better performance, and help to protect the environment.
To earn the ENERGY STAR, a home must meet strict guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. These homes are at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the 2004 International
Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20?30% more efficient
than standard homes.
"We are very pleased with our designation as being Southeastern Pennsylvania?s only 100% Energy Star Builder," said
Michael Palmer, Vice President. "Our buyers will benefit greatly by having reduced energy expenses due to the efficiencies
incorporated into our outstanding new home designs."
As an ENERGY STAR qualified homebuilder, Piper Homes offers homebuyers all the upgraded features they want in a new home,
plus energy-saving features like effective insulation systems, high performance windows, tight construction and ducts,
properly-sized and installed efficient heating and cooling equipment, efficient products, and third-party verification of
energy performance.
"Most homebuyers focus on what's outside the walls," said Sam Rashkin, National Director for EPA's ENERGY STAR Homes Program,
"but they also need to look behind the walls for the energy-efficient features found in ENERGY STAR qualified homes that
help ensure comfort, quiet, improved indoor air quality, and low utility bills for years to come."
Piper Homes is located at Bedminster Hunt in Bedminster Townhsip, selling Single Family Homes in the 2200-3300 square
foot range from $349,990 and Townhomes in the 1420-2000 square foot range from $239,990. All homes include upgrades like
