How Harries Construction Builds Energy-Efficient, Green Homes in Vernon

Building a Better Future with Energy-Efficient Homes

As energy prices rise and environmental awareness grows, more homeowners in Vernon are seeking eco-friendly solutions. Harries Construction leads the way with energy-efficient home building, combining modern design, sustainable materials, and smart technology to create homes that are beautiful, durable, and environmentally responsible.

Smart Design from the Ground Up

An energy-efficient home starts with thoughtful design. Harries Construction works closely with clients to optimize orientation, window placement, and room layout for natural light and airflow. This reduces the need for artificial lighting and minimizes heating and cooling demands throughout the year.

High-Performance Insulation and Sealing

One of the most critical components of energy efficiency is insulation. Harries Construction uses advanced insulation materials that provide exceptional thermal resistance, preventing heat loss during Vernon’s chilly winters and keeping interiors cool during summer. Proper air sealing ensures that conditioned air stays inside and drafts stay out.

Energy-Saving Windows and Doors

Modern triple-pane, low-E windows and insulated doors are standard in every Harries home. These features help maintain a consistent indoor temperature and block out noise and UV rays, improving comfort while saving on energy bills.

Efficient Heating, Cooling, and Ventilation

Energy efficiency isn’t just about insulation—it’s also about mechanical systems. Harries Construction installs high-efficiency HVAC systems and heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) that circulate fresh air without wasting heat energy, creating a healthier and more comfortable living environment.

Sustainable Materials and Building Practices

From using responsibly sourced wood to reducing construction waste, Harries Construction prioritizes sustainability. Wherever possible, recycled or low-VOC materials are used to minimize the environmental footprint of every project.

The Result: A Greener, Smarter Home

The result of all these efforts is a home that not only saves money on energy bills but also provides long-term comfort and peace of mind. Clients enjoy reduced environmental impact and a home that’s built to perform for generations.
