Today is National Green Building Day, a good time to talk about how we build and why it matters.
City Homes builds homes certified through the Built Green program across Edmonton and the surrounding area. This is a national certification that holds homes to higher standards for energy-efficiency, indoor air quality, water use, and long-term durability, all while encouraging better building practices and more sustainable material choices.
A Built Green home performs better over time. It uses less energy and supports healthier air inside. In a city like Edmonton, where extreme temperatures push homes to their limits, that performance matters. With better insulation, more efficient systems, and thoughtful design, these homes are built to handle every season.
For homeowners, that means lower utility bills and a more comfortable place to live. Some buyers may also qualify for a rebate on mortgage insurance, depending on the certification level and lender.
We believe homes should be built to last and built with the environment in mind. That’s the standard we build to, every time.
Today is about recognizing progress in smarter, more responsible building. We’re proud to contribute and committed to doing it well.
