StoneGate Earns ENERGY STAR Certification
We are excited to announce that StoneGate Apartment Homes has earned the ENERGY STAR® certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for 2019! We’ve worked hard to attain this designation – it represents proven, verified superior energy performance over a 12-month period. In fact, ENERGY STAR certified buildings perform in the top 25 percent of similar buildings nationwide!
Energy Star Certification means meeting a high bar, and by meeting these strict standards, StoneGate Apartment Homes is saving energy, saving money, and helping protect the environment by generating fewer greenhouse gas emissions than typical buildings.
For more than 20 years, EPA’s ENERGY STAR program has been America’s resource for saving energy and protecting the environment – today, thousands of facility owners and managers use ENERGY STAR to improve the energy performance of their buildings.
We are committed to going green and being an environmental leader. We credit this success to the efforts put forth to install energy-saving low-flow toilets, showerheads, and faucets. Additionally, we have installed new energy-efficient LED lights in each apartment and around the community. Finally, energy-efficient thermopane windows will continue to be the standard at StoneGate Apartment Homes.
On average, ENERGY STAR certified buildings and plants use 35 percent less energy, cause 35 percent fewer greenhouse gas emissions, and are less expensive to operate than their peers — all without sacrifices in performance or comfort.
To date, tens of thousands of buildings and plants across all fifty states have earned the ENERGY STAR. For more information about ENERGY STAR for Buildings and Plants, visit www.energystar.gov/buildings.
