Energy Efficiency

Jillian Homes believes that the homes we build should be energy efficient. Below are some of the green features which will be implemented in building your energy efficient home.

High efficiency water heaters use at least 20 percent less energy than standard models. In addition, we insulate the pipes to ensure that the hot water is being utilized in the most efficient manner possible.
ENERGY STAR appliances- ENERGY STAR is a joint program by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy to protect the environment through energy efficient products and practices. Appliances with the ENERGY STAR label exceed federal standards for energy efficiency. ENERGY STAR dishwashers and clothes washers are also more water and energy efficient and both of these features save you money.
ENERGY STAR lighting fixtures- Lighting fixtures with the ENERGY STAR label use compact fluorescent (CFL) or light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs to greatly reduce energy use. These types of bulbs require less wattage and produce less heat relative to the amount of light they produce. Less heat helps to reduce cooling costs as well. Another great feature of these new bulbs is a longer lasting product than the typical incandescent bulb.
Tight envelope construction using techniques such as Advance Framing, sealing all openings, and using blown in insulation (R21 in the walls, R50 above the ceiling), creates the energy efficient building envelope. Other materials that contribute are:
- ENERGY STAR windows- ENERGY STAR windows shield the summer heat and reduce the winter chills, to provide a more comfortable living environment, as well as saving money on energy bills. Also, their special coatings prevent fading of your valuables from harmful ultraviolet light.
  ENERGY STAR roofing- Roofing materials with an ENERGY STAR label help to reduce heating and cooling costs, as well as meeting or exceeding the performance of their non-ENERGY STAR counterparts.
High efficiency heating and cooling systems- By utilizing the latest technologies coupled with knowledgeable design and installation, our HVAC systems will save you money and ensure your comfort.

Water Savings

Water is one of New Mexico’s most precious resources. Jillian Homes building practices enables you to use less of this resource. Our homes are equipped with:

WaterSense low-flow/flush plumbing fixtures- Plumbing fixtures with a water sense label have demonstrated water savings of at least 20% compared to other fixtures.
ENERGY STAR dishwashers, clothes washers and water heaters- These appliances have demonstrated that they not only save energy, but also save water.
Xeric landscaping and drip irrigation- Jillian Homes provides plants that are either native or drought tolerant for New Mexico’s drier climates. Combined with a drip system for irrigation, the plants receive the water they need, where they need it – at the root system – which allows them to grow and thrive on less water.

Preserving Resources

Preserving resources is an important part of the Jillian Homes building philosophy. Listed below are building practices we implement to reduce our impact on the planet:

Advance framing techniques- These techniques use less lumber, meaning fewer trees have to be cut down, milled, and shipped to build a Jillian Home. In addition, we are partnering with the Arbor Day Foundation to help replant North American forests.
Low water use plumbing fixtures- These fixtures require less water to operate, helping to preserve our very important New Mexico resource.
Recycling construction waste: at a minimum we recycle metal, paper, cardboard and plastic waste generated during the construction process. We will continue to search for ways to reuse or recycle other materials rather than send them to the landfill.
