O’Dwyer Homes is a 100% ENERGY STAR Homebuilder
October 28, 2008 – Alpharetta, GA – Award-winning Atlanta homebuilder, O’Dwyer Homes announces it is a 100% ENERGY STAR homebuilder. To earn the ENERGY STAR, a home must meet guidelines for energy efficiency set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These homes are at least 15% more energy efficient than homes built to the
2004 International Residential Code (IRC), and include additional energy-saving features that typically make them 20–30% more efficient than standard homes.
O’Dwyer Homes is a “Green” builder using environmental processes and products while building your home. A “Green Home” begins with ENERGY STAR blue. Green building means improving the way that homes and homebuilding sites use energy, water, and materials to reduce impacts on human health and the environment. Building a green home means making environmentally-preferable and sustainable decisions throughout the building process - decisions that will minimize the environmental impact of the home while it is being built and over the many years it will be lived in.

-Highly efficient heating and cooling systems to promote energy conservation and cost savings
