Admittedly, 2015 wasn\u2019t too shabby. In fact, it was quite the opposite\u20142015 saw an enormous boost of structure<\/em>, at least where sustainable building is concerned. With demands from aware homeowners as loud as ever, the pressure to push buildings into maximizing their energy-efficient potential headed impressive developments in the industry.<\/p>\n

While many companies scrambled to enter the movement, ACT, Inc.\u2019s lifelong dedication to the environment looks forward to carrying exciting new residential and commercial projects into 2016.<\/p>\n

The upcoming year looks so overall promising because, well\u2014<\/p>\n

Residentially:<\/em> 2015 allowed their National Builders Program to meet individual agreements with TriPointe and Meritage Homes to put their water and energy saving systems in thousands of homes across the country. It\u2019s worth noting that Meritage is involved in a 2016 California energy-use evaluation project of building 20 zero net energy houses<\/strong>, ACT products included.<\/p>\n

Commercially<\/em>: 2015 saw the reinvention of D\u2019MAND Kontrols\u00ae Systems involvement with SoCal Gas Company\u2019s ODE program, likewise projecting savings into a new dimension of environmental impact.<\/p>\n

Aware of the significant contribution their electronic on-demand water distribution systems has brought (and will bring!) to the statistics, the company beams at the progressive \u201cgreen\u201d data wracking in.<\/p>\n

The above graph reveals the positive reaction of the construction industry\u2019s wallet to the demand for responsible living, outpacing all other sectors of construction growth in 2015 (according to the USGBC\u2019s study). When considering the 2.3 million Americans employed by the green building market<\/strong> in 2015, it\u2019s apparent that the modern buyer\u2019s influence is pushing down prices of smart homes and creating overall more awareness.<\/p>\n

ACT, Inc. applauds the recent national achievements:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 2015 Green Building Economic Impact Study shows that the green building industry contributes more than $134 million in labor income in the U.S.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

But refuses to accept less than significant leaps into the future:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same report reveals that the number of jobs generated in green construction will exceed 3.3 million over the next three years<\/em><\/strong>\u2014representing more than one-third of the entire U.S. construction sector.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the growing group clarity of investors, appraisers, designers, and homeowners, there\u2019s an expectation that half of the major homebuilders will be doing at least 60% of their new homes green.<\/em><\/strong> Lifting our scope to 5 years ahead, we get a 2020 vision of a solid, energy-efficient standard for building.<\/p>\n

Overall advice? What\u2019s good for the planet is good for builders\u2026 and having been in business since 1992, ACT, Inc. is on top of the list.<\/p>\n
