What is a "Green Home?"

A green home is one that meets high levels of energy efficiency and water efficiency, and its design has been reviewed against criteria which range from site utilization and landscaping to the selection of materials, finishes, applicances and lighting.  Most standards focus on new homes, but renovated homes can qualify as well.


What Role do Cabinets Play in a "Green Home?"

Although cabinetry isn't a primary source for earning points under most environmental programs, we will continue to focus on doing the right thing for the environment.  In the overall qualification program, cabinets play a very minor role in determining a home's "green" status.  The primary aspects that cabinets can help earn points on are in terms of construction materials and inpact on indoor air quality.
