Building green: Better for the environment and homeowners

Green construction is an idea that is here to stay. American's homes use about 25% of all the energy used in the United States and about 75% of the water. Green construction simply means using smarter building methods and more energy efficient materials to save money and to reduce the impact on the environment.

The benefits are significant:

• -- Cleaner air inside your house means a healthier environment for your family
• -- Less waste of materials, helping to keep costs down
• -- Better energy efficiency which can significantly lower your utility bills

As resellers of manufactured homes, we have always focused on efficient use of materials. At Fleetwood plants, they have developed innovative ways to reduce waste and use less energy to build top quality homes.

Several key suppliers have also made commitments to green manufacturing. Their products, when installed correctly, can contribute to LEED certification of the home. LEED Homes have been reviewed by the U.S. Green Building Council to ensure they meet the highest environmental performance standards.
