Emmy Homes is proud to bring energy-efficient homes to Long Island. Our designs make use of Energy Star guidelines, qualifying for Energy Star certification to help ensure the energy efficiency of your home. This not only cuts your utility bills but also increases the resale value of the home.

In coordination with Home Energy New York, Emmy now builds houses with eco friendly technology built-in. With choices ranging from solar panels, wind turbines and solar heating tubes, Emmy Homes in Commack New York can build and deliver an energy efficient house to you.

The wind power systems that will be used in Commack New York are the Energy Ball v100 and Energy Ball v200. These systems are designed to produce 500W and 2500W of electricity respectively. These wind turbines, which closely resemble a weather vane as opposed to a traditional windmill, are very compact. The v100, for example, is only 3 feet tall. When mounted on a pole on top of your house, is able to harness the wind, day and night, generating electricity for you. Any surplus electricity is fed back into the power grid and the power company pays you for that electricity.

The solar heating tubes are a different approach to heating the water used throughout your house. A fully enclosed system, it makes use of vacuum tubes containing narrow metal blades. As sunlight hits these blades, they heat tubes of water running through a seam in the blades. This water circulates back to your heating system through coils and indirectly heats the water in your water tank. The water in the solar heating tubes is not the water that you consume; rather, this water travels through coils that transport the heat energy to the water that you drink.

Solar heating tubes, such as those in the green power systems in Commack, work in both the summer and winter – based on sunlight. These shatter resistant glass tubes house the blades in a sealed environment. The ambient temperature has no impact on the blade. Even in the coldest temperaturs, solar heating systems collect sunlight and heat the water passing through the main tube, as high as 190F. Finally, solar energy panels installed on the roof of your new house can generate year-round electricity. While solar panels are only effective during daylight hours, the quantity of power they produce can be tremendous. Excess electricity is automatically routed back to the power company, who buys it back from you at the same price that they charge you for electricity. If you are smart and shut off lights and appliances in your house that you are not using, your electric requirements will drop, allowing even more electricity can flow back to the utility. Go on holiday and have your house act as a small power station, generating electricity and selling it back to the power grid day in and day out!

Remember, as you look at houses with clean energy technology in Commack, keep in mind the massive value of having green energy in your home. A home with solar electric, wind power and other solar energy on Long Island sets you apart from the rest. It is good for the environment, and reduces your bills and increases the resale value of your home.
