Our advanced framing technique is not just a construction method; it’s a promise of warmth and efficiency. With 24 inches on center framing and hollow corners, we ensure every inch available is insulated, eliminating cold spots and wrapping your home in a cozy embrace. Our narrower headers aren’t just structural elements; they’re carefully designed to enhance insulation, contributing to a home that’s not just a structure, but a sanctuary of comfort.
We place our HVAC systems within the conditioned space of your home, a strategic choice that exponentially boosts efficiency. This isn’t just about temperature control; it’s about creating an environment that breathes quality and care into every corner. With AeroBarrier technology, we transform your home into an airtight haven, minimizing airborne contaminants and energy loss, ensuring every breath you take is as pure as nature intended.
But our commitment doesn’t stop there. We adopt a vented rainscreen for every home we build, going beyond standard building codes. This isn’t just about meeting requirements; it’s about setting new standards in home construction. Our vented rainscreen ensures constant airflow behind your siding, protecting your home, your sanctuary, from the elements.
The heart of our Net-Zero and Net-Zero Ready homes lies in the power of the sun. With the preparation or installation of solar panels, your home becomes a beacon of renewable energy, designed to not only meet but exceed your energy needs. The roof is crafted not just for protection but as a platform for solar potential, paired with an option for a battery backup system for uninterrupted power, day and night.
At Marnella Homes, we don’t just build houses; we create homes that are certified to stringent standards of best practices for healthy and comfortable indoor environments, resilient building materials, installation methods and energy efficiency. With third-party verifiers involved from the start, we ensure that every aspect, from insulation to heating systems, aligns with our vision of sustainable, efficient living. Join us in this journey of innovation and commitment, where every home we build is a step towards a greener, more sustainable future.
