What makes your home a Green or Healthy Home?
The house is both active and passive solar, with the newest state of the art high efficiency solar panels which produce more power than the house consumes. A check is received each month from the power sold back to electric company. Extensive use of natural clay plaster and paint throughout the house helps cool in the summer and preserve warmth in the winter. The flooring is primarily ceramic tile. One of the bedrooms has a beautiful, natural bamboo floor. In the rear of the house is an compact, yet profuse organic garden which includes apple, peach, and nectarine trees, culinary and medicinal herbs, and perennial ornamental flowers. The garden is maintained by a drip irrigation system and a collected rainwater distribution system. No smokers have ever lived in this house.
