RESOURCE CONSERVATION

Preston coordinated and implemented leak detection and greywater solutions, including the installation of a leak detection water meter with automatic shutoff, and connecting three showers, a tub, and laundry to flow to sub-surface mulch basins in the property’s landscaping. An overflow three-way valve was installed per code to run to the sewer, if needed. Estimates predict savings/reuse of over 32,000 gallons of water per year.

Indoor Health

Paul and Duncan used materials and equipment to create a tighter building envelope, sound reduction, and mechanical ventilation to promote consistent and filtered occupant fresh air. Their efforts included air sealing exterior walls and ceilings, filling interior walls, coordinating the design and installation of energy recovery ventilation systems (ERVs), and working with our custom steel door and window fabricator to improve standard waterproofing details.
