Sustainability Features Of A Cedarglen Semi-Estate Home In Encore At West Grove Estates 

Our award-winning builder, Cedarglen Homes, knows that a good home is not just defined by its craftsmanship and curb appeal. As climate change becomes increasingly difficult to ignore, homes in 2021 need to be more than a family refuge; they need to provide elevated living standards without impacting the environment. 

This mission is at the centre of every Cedarglen build. Our Encore semi-estate homes are packed with features that increase your quality of life while simultaneously adhering to the most rigorous energy guidelines. In any Cedarglen home, you will find:

Triple-pane insulating windows: Triple-pane windows are a mainstay in every sustainable home. Compared to double-pane windows, triple-pane windows keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Your home will be less reliant on a central air ventilation system working double-time to keep it at room temperature. 

R50 attic insulation: Cedarglen attics provide some of the best insulation around. An R-value of 50 is well beyond the insulation level of most attics. Just like triple-pane windows, thick insulation keeps your home comfortable during extreme weather conditions. 

Sealed ceiling: By preventing air from getting into the attic, your Cedarglen semi-estate home keeps its warmth during the coldest winter months. 

Spray foam insulation: Cedarglen Homes use spray foam to seal all potential openings, such as rim joists and door and window gaps. Spray foam adds yet another layer of insulation to keep your home comfortable without driving up your energy bills. 

Airtight electrical boxes: Electrical boxes are often the source of cold air drafts. By outfitting them with self-sealing gaskets, Cedarglen electrical boxes are fully airtight and will prevent cold exterior air from infiltrating your home. 

R20 basement exterior wall: Like your attic, your basement is well-insulated. Most homes have a basement insulation value between R11 to R15. Cedarglen Homes offers R20 insulation. 

Tankless water heater: Unlike traditional water heaters that constantly use energy to keep a storage tank hot, tankless water heaters heat up cold water on demand. Because tankless water heaters only heat up water when needed, they are more gentle on your energy bills. 

95% high-efficiency furnace: Most furnaces are only 80% efficient, which means they expel 20% of their energy as exhaust. A 95% high-efficiency furnace only releases 5% of its energy as exhaust. A high-efficiency furnace not only allows you to save on energy but is also better for the environment. 

Energy Star-rated heat recovery ventilator (HRV): HRVs expel stale indoor air outside and funnel in fresh air that is warmed by a heated aluminium core before being delivered to the rest of the home. An Energy Star-rated HRV uses significantly less energy in the process than non-rated brands.
