Energy Efficiency

HERS Rating System

From day one we have designed your home with the latest efficiencies and have worked closely with RESNET (Residential Energy Services Network) to monitor our results. RESNET's ranks homes according to their HERS (Home Energy Rating) index. The lower the HERS score is the more efficient your home is! Check out the table below for a quick look at just how much you could be saving annually when you buy a new home over a used one, up to $2,000 annually saved in some cases. You can also see below that Robertson Homes' construction standard even go beyond the current energy code's standard.

Robertson Homes was one of the first builders in Birmingham Michigan to build a LEED certified home and we have built many more to LEED standards. For the past several years we have also been future proofing our entry level town home garages with EV car charger preps.  While always building beyond code minimums, Robertson Homes is keeping the future in mind and taking steps to become the first production Michigan builder to build Net Zero homes.
