The Value of Home Performance in the 21st Century
The 21st century is—like all centuries before it— full of technological marvels and advancements. As the start of the new millennium kicks in, humanity has seen its fair share of changes and improvements to lifestyles and quality of life. One of the industries that has been affected in amazing ways by new technology includes the housing industries. New building techniques, architectural 3-D software, and other electrical system and network advancements. All of this has created a home that is much more functional, much more convenient, than ever before. So what is home performance? And how does it benefit you on the day-to-day?
The concept of home performance is both a philosophy and science. It is a set of beliefs that are predicated on the idea that a home is supposed to be functional. It is supposed to work against the elements to protect the inhabitants, it is supposed to help in temperature regulation, it is supposed to be safe, comfortable, and durable. It’s supposed to be a solid and strong structure that can withstand harsh weather environments and years of use. At the same time, home performance uses new technologies and discoveries and implements them in a way that increases the homeowner’s convenience and access to amenities.
Energy Efficiency
It goes without saying that newer structures built in today’s standards are likely to help you save a lot more energy. Today’s energy demands are a lot higher than they ever were and people expect to be able to have a high capacity for electrical voltage. This means a lot more sophistication in the electrical networks. AT the same time, new HVAC systems, heating systems, and appliances will save you a lot of energy costs. According to Energy.gov air conditioners use about 5% of all the electricity produced in the United States. After that, it is water heating. Replacing an old air conditioner unit with an energy-efficient unit could save you 20-40 percent on your home cooling costs.
