Richland Homes uses Canada's R-2000 Energy Standard in most custom home construction.

Building to the R-2000 Standard ensures your new home will achieve an energy-efficiency approximately 40 percent above building code requirements. We do this by using the latest advancements in insulation, windows, doors and air exchange systems, specifying components with the highest Energy Ratings. Meeting or exceeding the standards of R-2000 translates into significant cost savings since you'll use at least 30 percent less energy than those living in conventional new houses.

Richland Homes builds to the highest environmental standards. Our homes differ from other homes in that they feature:

Tighter sealed ducts placed in more efficient locations Tighter construction to prevent air leakage and infiltration More insulation that is efficiently installed High-performance windows made with better framing and window materials The most efficient heating and cooling equipment of the appropriate size
