Welcome to the
Newby's energy efficient home!
1999 APEX Award Winner &
2000 Aurora Award Winner!
In 1996, Marvon Newby came to my office to discuss his
future home here in Crestview, Florida. In 1999, it finally
became a reality. Mr. Newby researched this home more than
any customer I have ever encountered. I am pleased to say
that it paid off after seeing his first power bills. But
this isn't just an energy efficient home. The Newby's home
is almost sound proof and hurricane proof as well. Take a
tour on the next three pages discussing the
Arxx Building
Products® construction,
wet cellulose & radiant barriers, and
WaterFurnace® geothermal heating & cooling system.
The
whole intention of this web page is to be informational on
how to build a 3068 square foot
home with 10 foot ceilings
and still expect the total
power bill to be less than $65
a month. Energy
efficient homes don't have to be ugly or expensive. The
Newby home looks like many other homes on the outside with
about 30-40% the power bill. An energy efficient home can be
built for 10-15% more than an inefficient home. Take the
time to research your builder and opinions before building
your home.
