What does ENERGY STAR Qualified and ENERGY STAR Ready mean?
A Cavco - Shippenville ENERGY STAR Qualified manufactured home is a home that has been designed, produced and installed in accordance with ENERGY STAR's guidelines by an ENERGY STAR certified plant. Retailers and installers play a critical role in assuring that homes are properly installed. The retailer and installers must complete the home to the ENERGY STAR checklist. We are required to have an independent Certifier periodically check no less than 2% of all ENERGY STAR installed homes.
Our modular homes can be built as ENERGY STAR Ready. The home is designed, built and then installed in accordance with ENERGY STAR Ready. The local builder has to demonstrate the ability to consistently meet ENERGY STAR requirements and establish specific inspection and testing procedures. This includes the use of independent third parties who can verify and document the home has met all requirements. A sample of homes built by the builder is also tested by third parties. Once those tests or inspections are finished and approved/certified, the home becomes an ENERGY STAR Qualified home.
