What to look for
when buying a new home.
As a builder, people always ask me. How do I know my
new home will be built to the highest standards?"
It's a good question Because while all homes are built
to building code standards, there is only one type of
home that's been given a
special designation because
it exceeds the building code
to make it more energy effi
cient In fact, it's so energy
efficient that Ontario Hydro
highly recommends it
It's called the R-2000
home Seen from the street
it looks like any other home
So what makes it so special?
It’s the way it’s built For example, R-2000 homes are
constructed with a greater attention to detail This
creates a more comfortable, even temperature in vour
home that also eliminates drafts and cold spots And
because of extra insulation and good quality doOrs and
windows, R-2000 homes reduce noise from neighbours
and outside traffic
Is clean, fresh air important to you and your family?
The R-2000 home lets you control the ventilation in your
home. For example, you don’t have to.open, the.window
for fresh air, the ventilation
system will ensure a contin
uous supply at all times by
exhausting the stale indoor
air and replacing it with
fresh outdoor air
But there is one thing
you must know Builders must receive special training
to build R-2000 homes And to ensure your home is built
to official R-2000 standards, it is individually inspected
and given its own certificate So look for the R-2000
symbol, it’s your way of knowing that the home you
buy is a better built home
