Energy Efficient Features Explained at Simmons Event

One of the advantages of owning a new home is that it may have energy efficient features that won't be available on older homes.

Simmons hosted a great event on June 9th for realtors that featured and explained the new energy efficient amenities being built into some new homes.  It is also very educational for homebuyers so they can ask to see if these upgrades are being built into their homes. 

The Uncensored Home is in Owasso and is a home in which all the energy efficient features that you cannot sometimes see such as insulation in the foundation, insulated ducts, insulated garage doors, the low E windows are exposed and explained.  It will be available for viewing for about two years.  Simmons homes are built to Energy Star Specifications which are 15-20% more energy efficient than a standard home.

The lighting display featured the past, present and future of lighting technology.

 

This is a new shower technology that creates larger, warmer water droplets for a luxurious shower experience while actually using 36% less water.

Did you ever think to ask your builder if they sealed and insulated their ducts?  No, neither did I.

A rare exhibit that showcases three features, the vapor barrier, slab foundation insulation and post tension cables for the foundation.

The Home Uncensored also features low E windows, attic and wall insulation, insulated garage doors and many more.....  The home is available for viewing, call me for an appointment!

Hi David,

 

Thanks for your comment, the event was for realtors but I'm sure they were hoping that we would in turn help promote all their energy efficient features which would save buyers money! : )
