What to consider before purchasing green construction products:

Which materials will be incorporated into the green home building project? For example, windows, doors, roofing, siding, patio/pool enclosures, insulated glass, impact glass, adhesives, sealants, etc.?
How can I purchase materials to make the structure more energy efficient?
How can I increase the structure’s renewability and sustainability?
How can I incorporate materials that will provide cost savings by reducing future maintenance of the structure?

Examples of benefits you can expect from the use of green home building materials:

Energy savings: A Classic brand metal roof can save up to 20% on heating/cooling bills.
Weather resistance: Green building materials frequently exceed the Florida High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) Building Code, the strictest code in the nation. Many products can withstand Category 4 hurricane-strength winds (up to 151 mph), and Mastic Home Exterior’s Structure ® EPS Premium Insulated Siding is rated to withstand winds up to 190 mph.
Reduction of exterior noise: Green building products, such as insulated glass, frequently offer this added benefit.
Variety: Colors, configurations, styles and prices are wide-ranging.
Warranties from 20 years to lifetime: Extensive warranties mean materials manufacturers stand behind their products, so contractors can rest assured that the sustainable building materials they have installed will be trouble-free year after year.
Ease of installation: Interlocking components and detailed instructions ensure that your use of green building products will proceed smoothly and without complications.
