Energy Efficient Homes

How We Build So You Can Save

Instead of charging you extra like some of the national builders, these features come standard in an Angle Home. We want our customers to have the best new home possible.

14-Seer Air Conditioning

Efficiency rating meets or exceeds 14.00 SEER—which can save you hundreds of dollars a year, compared to a standard air conditioner. Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), an energy efficiency rating for air conditioners. The higher the SEER, the more efficient the unit.

2x6 Exterior Wall Construction

Most builders now use 2x4 studs for exterior wall   construction. Except for our two smallest homes, we use 2x6 studs for exterior wall construction to maximize stability and wall space for insulation.

R-23 (23.32) Insulation in Livable Area Walls

Around R-23 (23.32)   insulation in livable Area exterior walls   (3000+ sq ft models have blown in insulation)

  •   Batt insulation R-   19
  •   Polystyrene insulation estimated R value 3.85 per inch
  •   ½” Drywall estimated R value .45
  •   Stucco estimated R value .025 (Exterior coat cement mixture, The Advantages of stucco: Makes home comfortable by reducing air infiltration, Reduces sound transmission, and Longevity in AZ climate)

Spray Foam Attic Insulation

Having the HVAC ductwork in near conditioned space provides for a more comfortable, healthy and energy-efficient home.

In traditional vented attic construction the ducts are in the attic and get extremely hot or cold depending on the outside temperature or sun. Attics can get up to 160 degrees in the summertime making the air coming out of your ducts very hot and instead of being comfortable. Hot air can be immediately pumped into your house that has to be made up for by blowing more cold air later. Not only is this uncomfortable but it makes your HVAC unit work harder to cool or heat your house. Another issue with vented attics is they allow bugs and critters to enter your attic and eventually into your home around lights and vents.

With the Angle Homes system, we have sprayed foam against the roof deck which keeps the ductwork at a temperature of about 6 degrees different than the house conditioned space. Your air comes out cool in the summer and hot in the winter. The HVAC unit does not have to work as hard making it more energy-efficient. With the spray foam in the attic, we have also right-sized the HVAC unit and the ductwork. This allows us to install a smaller unit that runs for a longer period and distributes air more effectively. This is not only saving you money because the system is smaller and the motor is not starting and stopping as often but makes the home more comfortable. Our spray foam creates a tighter air seal that keeps out the bugs and critters more effectively.


Open Cell Spray Foam– 

Open-cell spray foam adds R-value and seals air leaks in one step. Its name comes from the structure of the cells after installation. These open cells give the product a lower R-value per inch than closed cell spray foam and is the right option for many applications.

Insulation in Garage

Many builders leave the garage unfinished. Not only do we finish the garage but we insulate the garage walls and ceiling in all of our models 1400 square feet or larger.

Mastic Sealed Duct System

What better way to save energy, than to seal the duct system so conditioned air blows into your home and not the attic.

Solar Power is an Available Option

Solar power does  not come  standard on each   home, however many home buyers choose to   add this options to dramatically reduce if not   eliminate their electric bill.

Polysealed Infiltration Gaps

 Polysealed Infiltration Gaps are installed during the construction process to provide an airtight seal around windows, doors, and other gaps. Polysealed Infiltration Gaps are made from a flexible, durable polyurethane material that is designed to remain flexible, even when exposed to extreme temperatures. This creates a vapor-permeable barrier that allows moisture to escape while blocking airborne moisture, dust, pollen, and other pollutants. This barrier helps to improve indoor air quality and reduce energy bills by creating a more efficient thermal envelope. They are also highly resistant to mold and mildew and provide superior insulation values. Polysealed Infiltration Gaps are an ideal choice for any home construction project and are an ideal way to ensure the durability and energy efficiency of a structure.

Cascade Energy Efficient Windows

Dual Pane Glass Windows. The Warm Edge Spacer reduces condensation, reduces heat loss/gain through the glass, and greatly increases the integrity of the insulated glass unit's seal.
