Lennox Variable-Speed Air Handler/Humidity Control.

A traditional air handler delivers a blast of cool air until the home reaches the desired temperature, then shuts off until cooling is needed again. A variable speed air handler runs almost constantly at much lower speeds, resulting in less frequent cycling and reduced energy consumption.

Hebel Power Panel.

Hebel panels provide lifelong superior thermal insulation. Made of autoclaved concrete with steel reinforcement, the Hebel Power panel adds exterior insulation.

Open Cell Spray Foam.

Spray foam creates an air tight seal, preventing your desired temperature from escaping your home.

Insulated air conditioning box duct work.

Excellent thermal efficiency reduces energy costs.
45

GE Energy Star appliances.

Energy Star-certified appliances use approximately 70 percent less energy each year than standard models.

Lennox Wifi thermostat.

Allows you to control your AC settings from a Smartphone Standard in every home.

Open Cell Spray Foam in exterior wall and rafters.

Spray foam insulates and air seals in one step, with an air tight seal that prevents air leakage so your desired temperature doesn’t escape your home. We spray foam your rafters, so your air conditioner is working in an air conditioned space. This drastically reduces your energy bill.

Tyvek weather-resistant house wrap.

Tyvek is the industry leader in creating materials that keep air and water out, while letting water vapor escape. This technology both reduces energy cost and helps to prevent damage from mold and water. Tyvek house wrap supports your HVAC to keep your home cool in the summer and warmer in the winter, providing a more energy-efficient home.
7

Low E ultra-efficient double-pane vinyl windows.

Saves the average home between $126 and $465 per year as compared to single-pane windows. During the winter, this glass lets in natural light and keeps heat energy inside your house. During the summer, it reflects the sun’s heat energy away from your home for cooler inside temperatures. Windows also contain argon gas for added energy savings.
6

Insulated garage door.

Foamed insulation moderates the temperature in your garage and reduces the amount of energy required to cool the rest of your home.

30-year Owens Corning roof system.

Energy efficient roof shingles help keep your roof cooler, which helps to reduce energy costs. Balanced ventilation helps air flow through the attic to manage temperature and moisture.
