Green Homes for Connecticut

In Connecticut, Building Performance Construction is a leader in the use of residential building science to craft homes that are comfortable, healthy, safe, energy efficient, durable, and less costly to maintain. Some call this green building, but it’s really all about performance.

BPC strategies

New strategies for building and renovating homes have been developed by government, industry, and academic coalitions, working to improve home performance, without sacrificing aesthetic goals or increasing building costs. There is agreement on the elements of a high performance “system” that works synergistically to achieve a wide range of seemingly contradictory performance goals. The essence of this strategy is expressed in the axiom, “Build tight and ventilate right;” in other words, build well insulated, air-tight outside walls and provide mechanical ventilation. It is the expert use of these strategies that sets BPC apart from the competition.

BPC standards vs. Code compliance

Most builders, even those considered good, promote the fact that their homes meet “code” but provide no details regarding the critical performance elements of their houses. However, building codes represent the lowest acceptable level of construction permitted for these critical elements. Codes never require the use of the latest building science or the best materials and rarely address the performance benefits possible today. In fact, building to meet only the minimums required by code is a good way to guarantee an inferior house.

BPC promise

At BPC, our dedication to green building means that we can offer a range of cost efficient solutions to meet every green building challenge.
