With summer heatwaves and smoke events on the rise, we’re asking more of our homes – and homebuilders - than ever before. As a builder, I’m not just delivering homes that look good from the outside; they’ve got to keep people safe, comfortable and happy with low utility bills. Oregon’s recently updated residential building codes are a win for consumers, guaranteeing new homes are engineered for energy efficiency and lower utility bills from day one - and won’t require costly retrofits down the road.
