Why Understanding Your Climate Zone Matters
Knowing your climate zone is one of the smartest steps you can take before building or upgrading your home. Each zone across the U.S. experiences different temperatures, humidity levels, and seasonal shifts — all of which have a direct impact on comfort, energy use, and long-term performance.
Whether you're planning a new build, renovating, or simply wanting to improve your home’s efficiency, knowing your climate zone helps ensure you're making decisions that truly suit the place you live. It's a simple insight that leads to smarter, more sustainable living.
Every Green Home performs differently depending on where you live. Our Carbon & Energy Impact Reports provide a data-driven snapshot of how your home will perform in your state, showing exactly how much energy you can save and how much carbon you’ll cut by building or upgrading the Green Homes way.
Each report is based on verified modelling and years of field data from actual homes. It compares your home’s projected energy use and utility costs against a standard build, helping you see real-world value, not just claims.
Smart recommendations to support your next step.
