Build an Energy Efficient, LEED-Certified Home

Thinking of going green? When it comes to eco-friendly home construction, more and more homeowners are starting to see and enjoy the benefits of cleaner indoor air, more efficient energy and water consumption, and safer building materials.

That’s why a rapidly growing number of homes are now LEED-certified. LEED, also known as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is a voluntary rating system that was created to establish and define green/eco-friendly home construction.

The LEED program measures the overall green impact of a home through factors such as water efficiency, materials and resources, and indoor environmental quality—and it awards points for each criterion that is met or exceeded.

Interested in getting your home LEED-certified? We can help. TRION offers efficient indoor air quality solutions that can boost your point total and accelerate your path toward LEED certification.

For example, LEED requires that you control moisture levels to provide comfortable air, reduce the risk of mold growth, and increase your home’s durability. TRION offers a complete line of efficient humidifiers and humidistats—so you can rack up those LEED points and get cleaner, fresher air at the same time.

TRION air filters can also help you earn LEED points. Using a TRION Air Bear MERV 11 filter for air cleaning will give you at least one point toward your LEED certification.
