YAKIMA'S HEALTHY HOME DESIGN CENTER

LEADING FORCE ENERGY AND DESIGN CENTER


What do we mean by “Healthy Homes for Life”? We mean that through energy efficiency measures and the use of non-toxic products in a home, occupant health can be improved. This idea is supported by a December 2016 report by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Center for Healthy Housing that shows that home performance upgrades can improve the quality of a home’s indoor environment by reducing the prevalence of harmful indoor air pollutants and contaminants. We specialize in providing improved indoor air quality for Central Washington and its specific climate. Our integrated design team works together with you to handle all aspects of a healthy building project. Our products showroom in Downtown Yakima features “green” materials, products and systems that have been vetted as healthier and sustainable. 

Also, it is free to charge your electric vehicle at the two EV charging stations in front of the store - courtesy of the City of Yakima and Leading Force.

Our team can help create your

HEALTHY HOME FOR LIFE
