that maximizes efficiency and radiant heat protection while minimizing dust and sound.
- Zero or low VOC paint, carpet and finishes
- Compact flourescent lighting fixtures
- Professionally designed, high efficiency, HVAC system
a. 18+ SEER
b. On demand hot water units in strategic places
c. Zone control with split systems
d. Multi-phase units for efficiency and sound reduction
- Environmentally-benign bamboo flooring
- Water saving plumbing fixtures
- Energy-efficient windows — low "E" glazing
