Congratulations on the achievementand the designation. It hopefully will help you to make your new construction more environmentally friendly and energy efficient. The unfortunate part about getting a designation, is it's well known within the framework of our system but John Q Public really doesn't care.

Thanks Debbie an Ed. Educating the public is part of the program, its a win win situation if you can have a healthier home and save money on utilities at the same time which results in paybacks as well when you sell.
