Building High Performance Homes Since 1960

One of the key reasons to choose a smart, sustainable home is the potential for significant savings. At Bielinski Homes, we integrate energy-efficient systems and design features that maximize long-term savings on your energy bills. We collaborate with Focus on Energy, an independent energy advisor, to certify each new home and condominium, ensuring they achieve maximum energy efficiency, comfort, and durability.

Energy-Saving Features Include:

• Premium Insulation: For superior thermal resistance, we use R-21 high-density fiberglass BATT insulation with a 4mm poly vapor barrier at all exterior walls, R-50 loose-blown fiberglass insulation in the attic, and closed-cell spray foam insulation at the basement box sills in addition to using advanced air sealing techniques.
• Insulated Windows: Reduced heat transfer with insulated Low-E glass windows with Argon® gas-filled panes to block harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from entering your home and added comfort year-round.
• High Performance Furnace: All Bielinski homes feature AFUE rated, high-efficiency furnaces that utilize 97% of the fuel they consume, reducing waste and improving home energy performance. The HVAC system is operated by a Wi-Fi connected smart thermostat, which you can control through an app.
• Blower Door Tests: We hire an independent energy advisor to conduct blower door tests to detect air leaks and ensure your home is sealed efficiently, improving the overall energy performance of the home.

Bielinski Homes is a proud member of the Green Built Home Program. We prioritize eco-friendly building practices with sustainable materials designed to reduce waste, lower energy consumption, and protect natural resources.

Eco-Friendly Materials Include:

• Recycled Materials: Our homes feature materials using 80% recycled gypsum drywall, 100% recycled carpet pads, and 10% recycled concrete in the foundations and footings, reducing waste and conserving resources.
• Sustainable Lumber: All lumber used is certified by the Sustainable Forest Initiative, ensuring responsible sourcing and forest management.
• Low Environmental Impact: We use engineered I-Joist floor systems, which use approximately 50% less wood fiber than dimensional lumber and minimizes waste.  

In addition to being energy efficient, Bielinski Homes provide state-of-the-art smart home security features to keep your family safe. With technology that allows you to monitor your home remotely, you can always have peace of mind.

Home Security Features Include:

• Smart Door Lock: Lock and unlock your door remotely with smart front door locks. This feature provides increased security, especially for those who may forget to lock their door when leaving or returning home. 
• Smart Garage Door: Ensure your home stays secure with smart garage door openers. Open and close your garage remotely, ensuring that your vehicles, garage, or deliveries are secure even when you’re not around. 
• Smart Doorbell: Monitor who is at your door with video doorbells that include motion detection, real-time video, and two-way communication. See who’s at your door and communicate with visitors without opening it, enhancing security and convenience.

Superior wall construction means more than just strong walls—it means a home that lasts for generations, lowers your energy bills, and enhances year-round comfort. When you invest in a Bielinski home, you’re investing in industry leading materials designed to maximize strength, longevity, and better protection for your home. 

Wall Construction Features Include:

• Reinforced Wall Frames: Our 2×6 exterior and 2×4 interior wall studs are spaced 16” on center, providing superior strength and stability, reducing the risk of warped walls over time and outperforming standard construction methods.
• Weather-Resistant Sheathing: We use 7/16” OSB sheathing, adding rigidity and strength and protected with a weather resistant home wrap.
• Superior Foundational Strength: We reinforce 3,500 PSI poured concrete with horizontal and vertical rebar every 6’ on center, creating added foundational wall strength compared to block masonry.
