Providence Homes is excited to announce the completion of our 1,000th <\/sup>ENERGY STAR<\/em><\/strong>\u00ae<\/sup> home since becoming a 100% ENERGY STAR\u00ae Certified Builder in 2009. <\/em><\/strong>To earn the ENERGY STAR\u00ae blue label, every Providence home is built to the stringent ENERGY STAR\u00ae Version 3.0 (3.1 for Florida) guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Providence Homes is the largest locally owned 100% ENERGY STAR\u00ae Certified home builder in the Jacksonville area. \u201cWe remain committed to being the only local builder in Northeast Florida to have 100% of our homes ENERGY STAR\u00ae<\/sup> Certified,\u201d said Sean Junker, President of Providence Homes. \u201cWe believe in building well designed homes that are not only more energy efficient, but healthier for your family.\u201d In recognition of this unwavering commitment to building ENERGY STAR\u00ae homes, Providence Homes has been the recipient of the ENERGY STAR<\/em>\u00ae<\/sup> Partner of the Year in 2015 & 2016 <\/em>from the Environmental Protection Agency(EPA). The award recognizes its outstanding efforts to bring more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly homes to the Jacksonville marketplace through its actions. Providence Homes has also received the ENERGY STAR\u00ae for Certified Market Leader Award 7 years in a row (2010 thru 2016). ENERGY STAR\u00ae presents this award annually to builders who have made important contributions to energy-efficient construction and environmental protection during the previous year. And Providence Homes stands by their claims to building  ENERGY STAR\u00ae Certified homes by offering an unprecedented guarantee that every home they build will be  ENERGY STAR\u00ae Certified or they\u2019ll pay the homeowner $5,000. Additionally, as a RESNET<\/em>\u00ae<\/sup> Energy Smart Builder since 2010, Providence Homes is committed to having all of its homes energy rated following RESNET\u2019s stringent standards, too. A copy of every Providence Model Home HERS Index score is displayed in all model home sales centers. All ratings displayed are \u201cAs-Built\u201d ratings, as opposed to \u201cAs-Designed\u201d ratings. \u201cAs-Built\u201d ratings are a requirement for a home to receive the ENERGY STAR\u00ae<\/sup> Label. <\/em>About Providence Homes<\/em> When Bill Cellar founded Providence Homes as a one-man, home-based operation in 1992, he did so with a personal pledge to make a difference in the industry. He was committed to building beautifully designed homes at affordable prices, and to building every home with the same attention to detail and reliability he would with his own home. <\/em>About ENERGY STAR\u00ae<\/em> ENERGY STAR\u00ae was introduced by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1992 as a voluntary market-based partnership to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through increased energy efficiency. Today, ENERGY STAR and its partners have helped prevent a total of more than two billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions. In 2013 alone, ENERGY STAR and its partners provided more than $11 billion in societal benefits due to reducing damages from climate change. ENERGY STAR certified homes use substantially less energy for heating, cooling, and water heating; in fact, homeowners who buy ENERGY STAR certified homes can expect up to 30 percent less energy costs than a typical new home. Americans living in ENERGY STAR certified homes have saved more than $4 billion on their energy bills with more than 1.5 million American families now living in ENERGY STAR certified homes.   For more information about Providence Homes visit www.myprovidencehome.com<\/a> or contact Melissa Matthews at 904-337-5236.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
