Owning an environmentally friendly house doesn’t mean making sacrifices. In fact, and Earthcraft™ House is one of the most high-performance, durable, and resource-efficient homes you can buy.

Earthcraft House™ is a voluntary green building program that serves as a blueprint for healthier, more comfortable homes, which reduce utility bills and protect the environment. The homeowner benefits include:

• Savings on operating, health, and repair costs
• Conservation of resources and energy
• Improved indoor air and water quality
• Quiet, comfortable, and durable

Earthcraft House™ was developed by the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association in partnership with Southface Energy Institute and is one of the fastest growing and most comprehensive program of its kind in the country. In order to be certified under the Earthcraft House™ program, a home must undergo rigorous third-party inspections for compliance along with performance testing. The following areas are evaluated

• Site planning
• Energy efficient techniques, equipment, and performance
• Resource efficient design and materials
• Waste management
• Indoor air quality
• Water conservation
• Home buyer education and opportunities
• Builder operations

In 2004, Addison Homes, LLC became the only builder in South Carolina making the commitment to construct 100% of our new homes to the Earthcraft House™ standard – a commitment that continues today.
