Our Sustainability.
As the world increasingly focuses on environmental conservation and energy efficiency, new build homes offer several advantages that contribute to a more positive impact on the environment From reduced carbon emissions and enhanced energy efficiency to water conservation and healthier living spaces, a Pentland home strives for a sustainable future for both homeowners and the planet.
1. Energy Efficiency:
Every Pentland home is designed and built to meet stringent energy efficiency standards. We incorporate the latest technologies and building practices, such as improved insulation, efficient heating systems and double glazing. These features significantly reduce energy consumption, leading to lower utility bills – you could save over £2,600 a year!* – and a reduced carbon footprint.
2. Sustainable transport options
Each development has its own sustainable transport strategy, whether its building homes with built with electric vehicle charging points, or providing bus and cycle vouchers to encourage families to use sustainable transport options.
3. Care for the local environment
We provide local wildlife corridors, protecting and maintaining hedges for nesting birds as well as building bat and bird boxes and creating access in fencing for hedgehogs.
4. Water Conservation
Our homes integrate water-saving fixtures such as low-flow toilets, showerheads and taps, all meeting Water Regulations Approval Scheme (WRAS) standards. These features help conserve water and reduce overall water consumption, benefiting both the environment and homeowners by lowering water bills.
5. Sustainable construction materials
We build using sustainable building materials. This includes recycled and/or reclaimed materials, responsibly sourced timber and environmentally friendly insulation. By utilising sustainable materials and managing the production of waste, we reduce the demand for virgin resources and minimise environmental impact.
6. Healthier Living Spaces
We prioritise the well-being of homeowners by implementing improved indoor air quality systems. High-efficiency ventilation systems, non-toxic paint and low-emission materials create healthier living environments, reducing the risk of respiratory issues and allergies.
7. Futureproof Design
Our homes are designed to meet current and future environmental standards. By adopting forward-thinking practices and incorporating renewable energy infrastructure, these homes are well-prepared for the transition to a low-carbon economy, ensuring long-term sustainability.
