It’s all about spending less and saving more: spending less to heat and cool a home by saving it from the damages caused by air leakage. In the “Urban Living” home you’ll find the full portfolio of DuPont™ Tyvek ® Weatherization products, from wraps to flashing to fasteners. Further protecting the building envelope is Icynene®’s sprayed foam insulation, offering energy savings of up to 50 percent.
Big savings are also created with the use of alternative energy sources. Inside the NextGen “Urban Living” Home you’ll learn more about an exciting advancement in solar technology by Uni-Solar that allows you to convert any existing roof into an energy source with a product you can just peel and stick.
Inside you’ll find each room features products that save, from the energy saving insulating Low-E glass in Pella™ windows, to motorized Budget Blinds by Somfy Systems, to STEP Warmfloor™, a floor heating system that is efficient, self regulating, and can run on electricity or solar power. Inside the kitchens and bathrooms you’ll also find the latest eye-popping and water-saving products from industry leaders Kohler Co. and Whirlpool.
In the NextGen “Urban Living” Home Experience everything possible has been done to save on energy bills, providing the homeowner with more money to enjoy all that city life has to offer.
