Energy Star

Energy Star is one of the world’s most widely recognized brands.  ENERGY STAR for New Homes® builds are typically 20%-25% more energy efficient than those built to the Ontario Building Code, with added comfort and better indoor air quality.

Energy Star built homes must be built by a certified ENERGY STAR builder.  Our team of Certified Energy Evaluators will help you deliver cost-effective third-party verified and E-Star labeling for your new homes.  

ENERGY STAR upgrades may include better windows, insulation, airtightness, lighting and mechanical systems, but only add about 1% to the cost of a standard home.  Slightly higher mortgage payments are easily offset by lower monthly energy bills, which means premium ENERGY STAR homes actually cost buyers less to own overall, with higher resale value too!  Why would anyone settle for less?

All of your Part 9 residential buildings can qualify for an ENERGY STAR label, from singles to apartment blocks (max. 3 1/2 stories above grade, 6,000 SF footprint between fire separations).

Direct-to-builder cash incentives and marketing assistance is also available to ENERGY STAR builders.
