Solar Photovoltaic System - This 2.7 kilowatt system located on the garage roof of this amazing Denver, CO green home can provide up to 75 percent of the home’s electrical power needs.  The more power that’s produced, the less carbon the utility needs to burn.  Net metering will save a bundle in electricity.

Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) - The exterior walls of the home are constructed with pre-fabricated, super-insulated, structural insulated panels (SIPs).  These panels are a sandwich of soy-based, closed-cell foam between two sheets of no VOC OSB.  They provide unparalleled insulating performance, structural integrity and superior quality.

Zero Maintenance Exterior Materials – Composite wood rain screens, reclaimed stone and prefinished metal siding are maintenance-free.  Exterior maintenance on a home is expensive, time consuming and toxic. Zero maintenance means less waste and lower costs for the home.

Reclaimed Stone - Stone cladding was salvaged from a demolished building on the Boulder campus of the University of Colorado.  It’s beautiful, real stone and repurposing it kept it out of a landfill.

Composite Wood Siding - This wood/plastic composite siding material is made from recycled wood waste and plastic resins, giving it unparalleled durability while maintaining the warm appearance of a natural wood product. The siding never has to be stained, painted or sealed.

Commercial Grade Roof - This is not typical residential roofing.  This commercial-grade roof is installed on more than 1 billion-square-feet of buildings per year.  It’s a high-quality, high-performance, white roof that reflects the sun to reduce heat that enters the house. It repels rain and snow and lowers energy bills.
