Log Homes are environmentally friendly and energy efficient. Employing our log home construction methods uses less trees and resources in the building of our homes, while at the same time delivering an energy rating of R50 for a better built home. Whether you live in Northern Canada or the Tropics, your log home keeps the heat in or out, maintaining a comfortable living area to relax and enjoy family life. Your weather tight walls will help protect your family from severe snowstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes and earthquakes for centuries to come. A log home starts from the earth, is as close to nature as you can get, and is environmental healthy and clean for everyone. Our log homes are some of the most environmentally friendly homes in existance today.
It is imperative, for the sake of our planet, to employ building methods that reduce energy consumption and the related greenhouse gas emissions. Enjoy the savings from your fuel-efficient home while having an environmentally healthy and safe home to live in. Building technology has seen rapid advances in recent times with builders and homeowners looking for newer, more efficient ways to build homes that are stronger, more comfortable and energy-efficient while allowing for flexibility of design and lower future maintenance costs. Our integrated building technology is vastly superior to traditional stick framing methods giving you a stronger and more energy-efficient home.
Steps should be taken to reduce the energy consumption in our homes. Our log homes are built with substantial insulation value. The use of E-thermal windows with insulated frames promotes this. Energy efficiency can be ultimized by using a roof insulation that provides thermal efficiency, installing a HVAC system, adding a solar energy panel to provide some of the electricity required for the home and choosing efficient lighting and appliances.
