Rouse Chamberlin has restored my faith in the home building business. After dealing with an unreliable competitor of Rouse, prior to building our Rouse home, we were nervous at the idea of jumping into another home building contract. Their professionalism and compassion truly made a difference. They worked very hard for our dream of owning this home to come true.
Energy Efficiency
Our Smart
Energy-Efficient Choices
At Rouse Chamberlin Homes, we make smart choices to help ensure that you, our customer, are making the right decision. We select energy-efficient features to help you save more, live healthier, and feel true comfort in your new home in the years to come. From products to construction techniques, our team builds homes that will last a lifetime. Energy-efficiency is a priority while building your perfect home. In every home, we incorporate a variety of energy-efficient features. We design homes for efficiency, comfort, and savings by installing correctly-sized products, insulation, and appliances. Your home reduces the environmental impact you’re making and promotes a safe, sustainable neighborhood.
How do you measure quality?
IMPROVED INSULATION
Properly installed insulation with higher R-value helps keep heat in during winter and out during the summer.
AIR SEALING & WATER PROTECTION
Sealing leaks, cracks and gaps throughout the home and around equipment reduces drafts and energy bills.
SEALED & INSULATED DUCT SYSTEM
Well-sealed and insulated duct systems reduce air loss by as much as 20% for greater comfort.
HIGH EFFICIENCY HEATING EQUIPMENT
More efficient than standard models when sized and installed properly.
LOW-E GLASS
The Low-E coating reflects heat back to its source so it helps your home stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
TYPAR HOUSE WRAP
Housewrap functions as a weather-resistant barrier, preventing rain from getting into the wall assembly while allowing water vapor to pass to the exterior.
ARGON GAS FILLED WINDOWS
This gas acts as an insulator, working in both summer and winter to keep interiors protected from outside temperatures.
LED LIGHTING
Longer-lasting and more energy efficient than incandescent bulbs, reducing energy usage by 35-75%.
What is the HERS Index?
The Home Energy Ratings System (HERS®) Index is a measurement system for how a home’s energy efficiency is measured. The lower home score equals a more energy efficient home and that equals higher savings and lower energy bills for the Homeowner!
A home with a HERS® Index Score of 62 is 38% More Energy Efficient than a standard new home. A home with a HERS® Index Score of 130 is 30% Less Efficient than a standard new home.
How RC Home Does it Right
A home with a HERS® Index Score of 62 is 38% more energy efficient than a standard new home. In turn, a home with a HERS® Index Score of 130 is 30% less efficient than a standard new home. Each year, our construction team works diligently to keep improving our ratings because the lower the number is:
- the more money you’ll save
- the more you’ll reduce your carbon footprint
- the more peace and comfort you’ll feel.
