Quality Comes Standard

At Starr Homes, we pride ourselves on big energy savings. How can we help save you thousands?

Starr Homes ensures that each home is equipped with the best materials and appliances to create a lasting energy efficient home. Each Starr home has a 95% furnace that comes standard. These furnaces are sure to save you money on utilities and they are much more energy efficient than a traditional furnace used in most code-built homes. A 95% AFUE furnace means that 95% of the gas used by the furnace is converted to heat, while only 5% is lost to exhaust. Most other furnaces have a minimum of 78% efficiency, with 80% being about average and 90% considered very energy efficient.
