We have decided to get the house Energy Star certified. This will ensure our house receives a 5% discount on our electric bill and our house will use less energy to save us some money. While visiting the Wake County Parade of Homes we found a company called Effect Energy (http://effectenergy.us/) to consult with our builder to guide us through the process to obtain an Energy Star rating. The initial cost of building the house will be more, but we will recoup the money in the future.
