Does your company have what it takes to be an ENERGY STAR partner?

Whether you’re updating your products’ compatibility with home automation, like EMS just did recently with their roll shutters, or partnering with leading sustainable programs, it’s important to continually advance your company’s practices, products and certifications. 

Whether it’s boarding up your windows or installing impact windows, hurricane protection is a necessity in Florida!

Flying debris can break regular non-impact windows, sometimes causing sudden internal pressurization within your home which can result in your roof being dismantled. 

Each state has varying geographical climates and terrains which makes their building codes different per each state’s unique requirements.

If you’re a competitive player in the home building space, then you will need to brush up on what areas homeowners are focused on when building or renovating their home!

HGTV, Pinterest, and Youtube have delighted DIY (do-it-yourself) enthusiasts and have seemingly made home remodels easy to tackle.

The trouble comes when you shop for newer, replacement installations without a plan, or at the very least an idea, of what is best suited to your needs.

Most building professionals understand the impact and importance of using quality, high-performance materials. 

Energy efficient appliances and installations are in high demand because they’re designed to reduce energy bills, improve residential comfort, and are better for the environment. 

Did you know you can save money while minimizing your energy waste just by using certain materials to build or remodel your home?

The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) generates sustainable practices, tools and guidelines that enhance personal and environmental health.

Severe storms, including tropical storms and hurricanes, can be severe and unpredictable, packing a powerful punch when they blow through towns.

Thanks to weather radar and other technology, meteorologists are able to better predict their weather patterns and paths, but sometimes they still form out of nowhere.
