The Heartwood Builders Healthy Home concept is simple. At every step in our construction process, each of us asks ourselves questions such as, “Am I building this home to the high standards I want in my own home? Could this house trigger a child’s asthma or allergy attack? Will this house be energy efficient?”
Most of us spend more than 65% of our lives at home. Home is more than just a place to eat, sleep, work, and play. It’s the environment in which we raise our families. No place to skimp on health or safety, comfort, or beauty.

| We are all aware of air pollution hazards from car exhaust and smokestack emissions, but the Environmental Protection Agency singles out poor indoor air quality as the number one environmental health concern facing Americans. Combined with the fact that we spend 90% of the day indoors and 65% of that time at home, it should come as no surprise that the incidence rate of asthma in children has increased an alarming 72% in the past 12 years. |
