WHAT HOMEOWNERS ARE 

SAYING ABOUT ENERGY STAR 

QUALIFIED HOMES... 

“I think people should be concerned about 

saving energy for their own monetary 

benefit—saving money—and also for the 

environment.” 

“I would absolutely recommend these homes 

to others that are looking to buy a new 

home...not only does it save money but it 

also helps make everything comfortable.” 

“You’ll be able to tell the difference in the 

windows, in the heating, in the air system, 

just in the overall comfort of the home. 

You’ll be able to tell the difference from an 

ENERGY STAR home to another home. It’s 

a big difference. It’s something you have 

to experience.”
