Nearly 70 USGBC-Illinois volunteers are helping coordinate the event at 16 different homes around the Chicagoland region. It’s a great chance for people to learn about the impact sustainable products and construction can make in saving money and the planet! We’ve already reached out to legislators and expect some to attend and check out the homes in their district.
All homes on the tour have undergone third-party verification and testing to ensure the homes are built to national standards, earning certification through programs such as: ENERGY STAR for Homes, LEED for Homes, HERS Rating, IL GreenStar and Passive House.
Because the homes are built better, they deliver measurable savings, comfort, and health to their owners. Many of the homes on the GreenBuilt Home Tour will make you wonder why we all don’t have homes like these. You may even be surprised by the affordability of many of the projects.
