6 Energy Efficient Products the Lakes Use in Every Home Built

New homes for sale in Loveland and Ft. Collins are on the rise, especially during the busy summer buying season. Energy efficiency is the single most notable improvement in the past decade, and our homebuilders at The Lakes at Centerra, have integrated energy and cost saving technologies into each of their designs.

Wonderland Homes shared, “The cost of ownership is greatly reduced by virtue of the high performance features built into our homes that make them more comfortable, more sustainable and much less costly to operate.”

Aligning with one of our community’s core values of sustainable living, Boulder Creek Neighborhoods, TRI Pointe Homes, Village Homes and Wonderland Homes offer a wide range of home features that save energy and reduce costs.

Live Smart

From the very beginning, our homebuilders install quality insulation and sealing using recycled materials and engineered lumber. To keep costs low during every season, other features may include:

• Smart furnaces to warm your home without hurting your wallet.
• High-efficiency argon-filled windows that filter light while protecting your interior fabric and flooring
• Light dimmers that allow you to adjust the amount of light needed during different times of the day.
• Programmable thermostats that are added into each room, so that energy usage can manually and consciously be controlled.
• Tankless water heaters that boast a 40% savings compared to traditional water heaters.
• Central ceiling fans that work to evenly circulate air and keep rooms at a comfortable temperature year-round.

Built To Last

After each home is built, it is inspected by a third-party to assess and ensure quality construction, insulation and water efficiency. When you purchase a new home for sale in Ft. Collins or Loveland, you’re making a long-term investment in the environment and your family.
