Talk of a climate-related crisis can be overwhelming, but there’s a much simpler reason why it’s well worth considering building an energy-efficient home. Put simply, it will help your pocket in the long run by reducing ever-increasing power bills.
One of the main reasons power bills soar is because older homes tend to be leaky. They lose hot air from expensive heaters during winter and struggle to keep in the cool from power-hungry air-conditioners in summer.
If you build brand new with a reputable builder, you can counter this with some thoughtful build inclusions. For example, double-glazing may cost a bit more upfront, but it makes good sense. Trapping air between two panes of glass is energy-efficient, keeping warm air in during winter and out during summer.
