Another new label helps you find products that are eligible for the federal tax credit of up to $1,500.

Build Green in Georgia using Engineered Wood

How would you like to build green homes and save money at the same time? A recently conducted study shows that putting radiant barriers in attics can result in a 20% reduction in the AC unit's run time during the seven hours of peak attic temperatures, can cut peak temperatures by 23 degrees, and have a 57% efficiency improvement in the cooled air delivered through the air ducts. The study was conducted last summer by Appalachian State University, and led by Jeff Tiller, chair of the Technology Department, and Bruce Davis, building research scientist at the ASU Energy Center. In new construction, you can cut your heating costs by using engineered wood panels that are radiant barrier OSB products, such as LP's TechShield. Here in the Atlanta - Athens area, where temperatures often reach well into the 90's, your energy savings can be even greater. For more immediate savings, Huber offers a rebate to first-time builder users for their engineered wood panels. Advantech, Zip-Wall and Zip Roof products improve efficiency and functionality while building green with sustainable wood products.

Building Green using Engineered Wood in the Atlanta - Athens Georgia area

Here in Georgia, especially in Atlanta and Athens, building material supply dealers are searching for ways to increase sales, while simultaneously contributing to sustainablity. It's no secret that suppliers are promoting green building products more heavily. This appeals to the Generation Y "shadow buyers" that have not yet formed new households. Here in Georgia, We have "pent-up demand" from these potential buyers that could cause a surge in new home purchases. Engineered wood and engineered lumber products will appeal to these new prospects that have a “build green” mind-set. Many people prefer to live in a green home, even considering the higher costs. Composite wood products for decks, such as those manufactured by TimberTech, are not only green building products, but are also low-maintenance.
Builders Don’t Tell Buyers About Homes’ Green Features, Study Shows
Pros are “missing out on a very important opportunity” because consumers are clamoring for these features, says official of J.D. Power and Associates, which conducted the study.
TimberTech products help create a more sustainable world – one piece at a time.
TimberTech has the perfect balance of quality and sustainability. TimberTech is a proud member of the U.S. Green Building Council.
