Beginning February 1, 2016, builders in Southwest Washington can receive an EPS™ for their electrically heated homes. To earn a score, qualified homes must also be ENERGY STAR® certified.

EPS is a rating system that helps define a home’s energy consumption, utility costs and carbon footprint. It also serves as a pathway and promotional tool for builders who understand the added value of homes that use energy wisely. If you’re a builder who strives to build quality, comfort and efficiency into your homes, EPS is a tremendous resource that benefits both you and the homebuyer.

Cash incentives are also available for newly built EPS homes in Washington for customers of NW Natural. For more information about incentives for builders in Southwest Washington, contact your trade ally coordinator at 1.888.354.2604.
