Ardiente’s SheaXero homes cut energy bills by using solar and energy-efficient features

Heat. It's nothing new to those living in the desert and neither are the escalating electric bills associated with the summer months. It's a fact many simply accept when moving to Las Vegas.

Shea Homes at Ardiente is changing the game by eliminating air-conditioning bills with its new SheaXero homes.

"What would you do if you had an extra $3,000 a year? I only ask because that's what members can save with Ardiente's SheaXero home," said Ryan Smith, sales manager at Ardiente. "SheaXero means Trilogy members don't pay for their electric bill, and the cost of having an energy-efficient house isn't tacked on to the price of the home. That's the kind of progressive thinking that makes our community unique."

Ardiente includes SheaXero No Electric Bill Home features as standard in all of its SheaXero Series homes. These homes combine solar power and energy-efficient features, eliminating monthly electric bills and freeing owners from the expense and unpredictability of escalating energy costs.

High-powered solar-power systems are at the heart of every SheaXero home, producing clean, renewable energy that offsets electricity consumption, savings thousands of dollars every year.

On an annual basis for an average family of two, SheaXero homes generate as much energy as they use. They come standard with energy-saving features such as Whirlpool Energy Star appliances, Trane energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, low-emissivity 3 vinyl windows, cathedralized attic insulation and blown-in insulation.

"We know many boomers live on a fixed income. They need a reliable place to retire that's practical, environmentally friendly, well-built and understands their lifestyle needs," Smith said. "Our attention to detail, resort amenities and affordability are all reasons why homebuyers feel comfortable starting the next chapter of their lives in our community."

Minutes away from the Strip and close to the mountains, Ardiente offers residents a lifestyle that revolves around wellness, exploration and close, personal connections, Smith said.

At the hub of the community is a private 20,000-square-foot clubhouse featuring two resort-style pools, an expansive fitness center, group exercise studio and a multipurpose meeting facility.

Shea Homes was recently awarded the J.D. Power Customer Service Champion Award for the second year in a row, which honors companies that excel in "people, presentation, price, process and product."
