ECO NOW
NEW HOMES

Our Eco Now homes use our ‘Fabric-First’ approach to retaining heat in the home. They’re heated using A+ rated energy efficient gas boilers to save you an average of £2,600* on your energy bills.

It’s about building energy efficiency into the very fabric of the home, using enhanced insulation, highly efficient doors, windows and heating systems to reduce the home's energy use and retain heat.

The average UK home has an EPC D rating but our ‘fabric first’ design ensures our homes are rated B. This results in overall lower energy consumption and reduced running costs for Redrow home owners.

To help maintain healthy airflow within our homes we install trickle and purge vents alongside extractor fans in places that see high moisture levels such as kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms.

Our homes greatly reduce water usage through the installation of low flow water taps. Low flow taps see the introduction of air to the water flow when being used. The flow and pressure of water is not affected by adding air here and this small change helps our homes to outperform the standard for water usage by an extra 20 litres per person per day.

If you wish to add further energy efficiency features to your Eco Now home you can purchase solar panels through My Redrow. Please speak with the sales team on your chosen development for more information.

Research by the HBF, based on EPC ratings, suggests that buyers of new build houses could have saved an average of £2,575 on their annual energy bills last year. HBF Report - Watt a Save
