One World Builders is an advanced Green Builder and continually improving in technology and resources as we build worldwide, nationally and here at home in the City of Tampa. This distinction reflects the thought put into each home to make sure it is highly energy efficient and stands the tests of time.
When designing each home you will work closely with our management team and architect to discuss superior construction options to improve efficiency and comfort. OWB’s standards of construction as an advanced Green Builder with the city of Tampa include:
R38 BATT at the roof deck reduces the amount of heat that reaches your attic. Also, by insulating at the roof deck you eliminate the roof venting which is not only unattractive but also one source of roof water penetration.
R21 Blown Cellulose in the exterior walls is a method in which insulation is blown in moist and completely fills the 2X6 cavity. This method keeps your energy usage down by protecting the interior of the home from the exterior elements. Whether it is the dead heat of summer or the chilly nights of winter the interior of your home will remain at your desired state.
Hot Water Recirculation throughout the home allows immediate warm water for showers reducing waiting for the system to purge the cold water out first and wasting water during this time. recirc systems are on a timer which stops circulation during sleep time.
Insulating all water lines under ground reduces the decay of lines and also protects them from damage during the back filling of dirt.
Pella Windows and Doors is our preferred window manufacturer and has the highest window rating range with the City of Tampa. Their windows and doors feature exterior frames that do not absorb water and greatly reduce rot.
Tyvek Wrapping is a moisture and air barrier which helps maintain dry walls and maintains their R value.
Trane air conditioning units operate at a minimum of 18 seer-High efficient units.
These are just a few of the many methods OWB uses to help improve the life and performance of your home.
