We Build Green
Lumber One builds green, with continually growing expertise in designing and building custom homes, apartment complexes and entire developments through green building practices. This approach includes smarter building orientation, design, construction and materials selection for more efficient use of water, land and other resources. Our building green approach includes:
- Effective insulation for consistent temperatures throughout the house with less energy use
- High-performance windows with coatings to help keep heat in during winter and out during summer and block damaging ultraviolet sunlight
- Tight construction and ducts to help eliminate drafts, moisture, dust, pests and pollen, which improves indoor air quality and comfort with lower maintenance costs
- Energy-efficient heating and cooling equipment that turns on and off less frequently, removing more humidity and providing better comfort with lower utility bills
