We just had our house built about 2 years ago and the builder used all energy efficient products from windows to appliances all with the energy star.Also they had a problem in the past with water erosion coming from the downspouts.
Extensive renovations were made to the architecturally significant mid-century Hayes Residence in order to open up the floor plan, make better use of underutilized areas, update the finishes, and dramatically reduce energy consumption. The most significant changes were made to the kitchen/dining area, mudroom addition, master bedroom suite, and mechanical systems.
