BA-PIRC Partnership with
Homes by Point
Brandon, FL

This Building America industry partner is a custom home builder that builds over 50 homes a year. FSEC discussed Building America, Energy Star and Green building design with staff from Homes by Point, tested an existing home and analyzed a set of plans for this builder. In 2008, BA-PIRC team members also performed preliminary ratings on two more homes and provided load calculations for both homes prior to TBIC and FGBC inspections. Upon inspection, only one of the homes required modifications. In 2009, final ratings and FGBC certificates were delivered for these homes, which achieved HERS indexes of 76 and 72.
