Green Building Department
Deltec's Green Building Department is a valuable resource for many homebuilders building their new green Deltec Home.
Our focus is to build homes responsibly by minimizing environmental impact and providing a sustainable structure that it healthy to live in, durable and highly energy efficient. The Green Building Department is your resource for information on a wide variety of topics including energy efficiency, renewable energy, sustainable products and indoor air quality. Some examples of how we help Deltec homeowners:
1. Answer questions about renewable energy such as solar and wind power.
2. Provide information about energy efficiency and insulation.
3. Discuss the importance of air sealing and window quality.
4. Consult on Passive Solar Design elements.
5. Assist in floor-plan layout to optimize day-lighting and water efficient plumbing design.
6. Help research sustainable products such as cabinets, flooring and paint options.
7. Review plans and offer suggestions about how to improve energy efficiency.
8. Provide suggestions about how to improve indoor air quality.
9. Assist in documenting and setting up certification programs such as EnergyStar and LEED for Homes.
Incorporating green techniques and products into the design phase of your home is essential to the optimal performance and comfort of your new home.
Please consider having the Green Building Department involved at the start of your project. We are happy to help you in any way that we can.
