At Harris Doyle Homes, energy efficiency is a core pillar of every home we build. Our homes are designed to meet today’s stringent building standards, helping provide lasting comfort, performance, and long-term savings for homeowners. From thoughtfully selected materials to smart home technology, every detail is chosen with efficiency and everyday living in mind.
The HERS Index is the industry standard by which a home’s energy efficiency is measured. It’s also the nationally recognized system for inspecting and calculating a home’s energy performance. The lower the score, the lower your total monthly energy bills.
Harris Doyle Homes are built to use far less energy than other code-built new homes. On average, our homes are 12-18% more energy efficient than other code-built new homes, and 42-48% more energy efficient than homes built in 2007 or before.
