Home Performance
As a Building Science company, Green Collar Crew takes an integrated "whole-house" approach and looks at your house as a system. Rather than focusing on a single component, such as single-paned windows, an old air conditioning system, or leaky ductwork, we will assess how improvements to all of these components can work together to provide fewer drafts, consistent temperature, better ventilation and lower utility bills.
Top Ten Components of a High Performance Home:
High performance and green homes are energy efficient, healthy and safe, durable, comfortable, environmentally responsible and are designed and built as a system.
1) Tight construction with proper ventilation
2) Sealed Healthy Crawl Space
3) Improved insulation
4) Low E Windows
5) Right-sized HVAC system
6) Properly designed and sealed duct system
7) Pressure balanced and properly tuned HVAC system
8) Improved indoor air quality
9) Proper exterior moisture management
