Visit us at the Professional Builder Show Village, and take a personalized tour of the Environments For Living® Certified Green Home.
This year at the 2009 International Builders' Show (IBS) in Las Vegas, Masco Home Services is proud to offer you a unique "insider's view" of the Environments For Living program. You'll be greeted at the front door, and welcomed to a personalized tour that showcases how a building science approach enables you to offer your customers limited guarantees* on comfort, and heating and cooling energy use.
The tour will focus on energy efficiency, water efficiency, indoor environmental quality, and durability, taking a "builder's-eye perspective" with exhibits of building methods. The tour will also feature Masco brands and sponsor products that can be used to achieve the Environments For Living specifications.
You'll see first-hand how energy efficiency is impacted by a variety of factors in a home's design and construction, including how airtight the building envelope is; thermal performance of insulations systems: mechanical system performance; and window and door selection.
You'll see the many ways the Environments For Living Certified Green program focuses upon water efficiency with innovative solutions like low-flow faucets and showerheads, high-performance appliances, and engineered plumbing systems.
You'll see how indoor environmental quality can be improved by removing pollutant sources; creating a tight building envelope so that ventilation and space conditioning can be effectively controlled by mechanical means; and installing effective ventilation and space conditioning systems.
And you'll see how durability can be affected by reducing issues associated with water and moisture damage, and focusing on the use of materials that improve moisture performance of buildings.
It's more than a house. It's a system.
