1. OUR MAIN FEATURES

ENERGY EFFICIENT HOMES
New homes are much more efficient than older, “used” homes. In fact, you can save thousands of dollars on your energy bills over the life of your home and enjoy a quieter more comfortable home. The ENERGUIDE rating, as calculated by the Ontario Building Code, of a new home is significantly better (and therefore more energy efficient) than a used home. Superior energy efficiency is an idea we are committed to.

A Sunlight Heritage Home is built with a better ENERGUIDE index than the average new home built to code by exceeding minimum building requirements.

7-YEAR INSURED STRUCTURAL WARRANTY
Seven-Year Major Structural Defect Coverage. In addition to the builder’s two-year warranty against major structural defects, the Warranty Program (Tarion) provides extended coverage for major structural defects in years three through seven (Paid by buyer).

FULL BASEMENT
All of our homes include a full basement under the entire livable area. At Sunlight Heritage Homes we believe that exceeding standards from the basement up is the place to start. All our basements are wrapped in R20 blanket insulation to provide a warmer basement (other builders may only insulate with R12, the building code minimum-value required). Basements will have a big impact on the resale value of your home and many of our customers finish their basements for additional living space.

HIGH POURED WALLS
We believe by building the strongest foundation system in the industry should only be the beginning. We exceed the minimum requirement of 15 mpa concrete using 20 mpa on all poured concrete foundation with industry leading waterproofing drainage system, based on uniquely shaped air-gap exterior membrane. This foundation treatment is a key factor in maintaining a dry basement.

HEAVY DUTY 2X6 PREMIUM EXTERIOR WALL’S
Sunlight Heritage Homes is one of the few builders that uses Premium wall studs, kiln dried 12% moisture content, as a standard. Premium wall studs contain less moisture which results in less twisting and warping and contributes to a better built home.

PEX WATER SYSTEM
Chances are considerably less of ever developing leaks with PEX vs. conventional copper and CPVC systems. PEX plumbing is also resistant to damages caused by Chlorine and is a very sanitary water system with fewer harmful toxins than copper or CPVC and practiced over 30 years in Europe.

R-22WALL & R-60 CEILING INSULATION
With today’s energy costs, the increased R Factor will save you money and help provide a more comfortable home. R values may differ depending on overall design and code requirements.

HRV SYSTEM
HRV provides fresh air and improved climate control, while also; saving energy by reducing heating (and cooling) requirements
