Each year on April 22, Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement. Since the very first Earth Day in 1970, over 1 billion people have mobilized to protect our planet.

It’s all about working together to raise awareness of the need to protect Earth’s natural resources for future generations. McCaffrey Homes is proud to do its part to support this aspirational goal on Earth Day, and every day, through initiatives like McCaffrey EarthSense homes.

Our EarthSense homes exceed California energy requirements and help homeowners conserve resources thanks to better insulation, high-performance windows, water-saving bath fixtures, weather-smart irrigation controls and built-in recycle centers. Homes that meet our rigorous EarthSense standards focus on several Earth-friendly sensibilities:

 Energy Sense: High-performance insulation systems combined with energy-efficient products and features help you consume less energy.

 Water Sense: Water-efficient plumbing, smart landscape design and irrigation technology combine to conserve water.

 Eco Sense: Careful recycling programs and sustainable materials to help preserve our natural resources.

 Health Sense: Employ advanced filters, products and finishes for better indoor air quality.

 Life Sense: Neighborhoods with ample open space for parks, trails and recreational amenities to enrich your life.

Combined, these EarthSense features make your life easier, smarter, more efficient and more green. What does that look like in real life?

Our homes are built to help you conserve water and energy, be kind to Mother Earth and breathe easier in your home, thanks to better, healthier building materials. We work hard to find the most Earth-friendly products to help improve the efficiency and comfort of our homes. While many of these components go unnoticed, everything from the whole house HVAC system to the built-in recycle center have been designed to help simplify your life, improve energy efficiencies and reduce our impact on the environment.

We invite you to tour our four new home collections in Tesoro Viejo, the master-planned community in Madera, located just minutes north of Fresno. All are excellent examples of the McCaffrey EarthSense mission.
