You have probably heard that Green buildings are better, but do you know what a Green building is?
They are sustainable constructions that use non-toxic materials and have less impact on nature. Why? Because they need fewer resources to be functional. This means less water, less heating, less air conditioning and therefore more energy efficiency.
Any building can be a green building, whether it is a house, an office, a school, a hospital or a shop. They all have the same thing in common: efficient use of energy, water and other resources.
We already know that they are good for the planet, but what benefits do these buildings bring to the owner?
- Good thermal insulation
- Lower bills
- Increased value of your property
- healthier because the air inside is less polluted
- Reduces damp, mould and condensation
- Prolongs the life of the buildinghttps://greencontractors.co.uk/our-work
- Improves the environment
- Combats global warming
Green buildings can transform our life, our city, our country and the planet.
If you live in an existing house, but you want to make it greener, you can do so. You can order an energy audit to find out where to start.
What is an energy audit?
An energy audit is an assessment of your home that takes a look at current energy consumption and then identifies energy efficiency measures that you can conduct to make your home more efficient.
