Last week Earthcraft Virginia recognized Latitude 38 for building two of its Top Ten Most Energy Efficient Homes of the Year at 776 Ridge Street and 413 10 1/2 Street, both in Charlottesville. We are excited to build to Earthcraft’s high standards of measuring:
- Site Planning
- Construction Waste Management
- Resource Efficiency
- Durability and Moisture Management
- Indoor Air Quality
- High Performance Building Envelope
- Energy Efficient Systems
- Water Efficiency
- Education and Operations
- Innovation
Having third party verification of our construction through preliminary and confirmed energy modeling, design review, a pre-drywall inspection, a blower door test, and a final inspection, makes us stay on top of our game. We appreciate our relationship with our local auditor, John Semmelhack from Think Little, who helps keep pushing us to use new science to make our homes ever more comfortable, energy efficient, high performance homes.
