The key to our extraordinary energy efficiency is our use of structural insulated panels, or “SIPs.” These panels are like an ice cream sandwich -- a layer of wood, a thick layer of insulating foam, and then another layer of wood. The polystyrene foam contains no formaldehyde or ozone-depleting CFCs or HCFCs and is 100% recyclable. Building with these panels enables us to wrap your home in insulation, which keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

To build on the SIP advantage, Whiskey Creek houses feature numerous other elements that boost energy efficiency. We orient our houses on their lots to maximize passive heating and cooling strategies. We use tankless water heaters and energy-efficient heat pumps to minimize power usage. And high quality, dual pane windows and doors will help you keep your house at your ideal temperature.

Our commitment to energy efficiency means your monthly energy bills will be much lower than you’d pay with other homes, whether traditional houses or “new builds.” You save money -- and you’re doing right by the planet.
