What Is Green Building
There are several resources that set a variety of standards for their definition of being green. Some are from consultants, advocates and others. Some local jurisdictions have created their own “Green Building Standards” to implement within their community. These are not right, wrong, better or worse, they all are just different. However, by building consensus thru a broad based group of industry and private sector parties, good things can happen and an agreed upon set of standards can be defined.
National Green standards strive to minimize the impact on the land, to better use energy and water resources, to enhance durability of the products used, to provide better indoor air quality and ultimately educate the homeowner on
proper operation of the home’s systems and proper maintenance of the home and it’s components.
National Green standards are typically above-code standards with systems that usually cost more to build and buy than older hones and other noon-green new homes. Green building programs are typically voluntary to allow the homeowner to choose the systems that fit their budget.
National Green Standards are usually tiered to allow you to pick and choose from a variety of practices and principles to achieve certain defined thresholds
The National Green Standards can be ANSI (American National Standards Institute) approved.
The NGBS (National Green Building Standard) is ANSI approved thru the public review process and the ANSI consensus standards process.
The NGBS is suitable for all types of residential community development and construction projects.
The NGBS requires increased performance in all levels to achieve the next higher level of rating.
The NGBS was developed with affordable rating costs in mind.
Either way, you and your builder can discuss the level of Green that you might want to obtain, the implications of that level and the costs associated with the rating system you both choose to pursue. So how green is my home, that decision is up to you!
