Making a sustainable lifestyle that bit easier
Moving to a new Redrow home doesn't just help your wallet. The average UK property has an EPC rating of D, our homes typically have a B rating, which makes a big difference in the emissions caused by living in your home.
If you’re looking to go the extra mile, you could even add solar panels to your home. Speak to a Sales Expert at your nearest development to find out more.
What makes a new Eco Now home energy efficient?
Our high-specification new homes are built with a ‘fabric-first’ approach to help conserve heat. They exceed air-tightness requirements while maintaining air quality with a continuous flow of fresh air from extract ventilation and trickle vents.
Double-glazed windows support with heat retention and smart heating controls help you maintain a steady temperature. Highly efficient kitchen and bathroom fittings, standard in our Eco Now homes, could help you cut water usage and bills on average by 27% compared to those in older homes, based on HBF data (October 2024)**. So you could save water, lower your bills, and still enjoy a comfortable bath or shower.

It’s about building energy efficiency into the very fabric of the home. Installing enhanced insulation and 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 could reduce running costs for Redrow homeowners.

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 new Eco Now 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.
