Solar Panels• Solar panels on the roof turn your home into an energy generator, a direct match of energy type used to power the home, meaning that electrical energy is both produced and consumed.

Eletrical Car Charging Station• Car charging station in the garage for a future electric vehicle (FLO Home G5 Model)• Electric Vehicle Energy Management System - DCC-12

Air purification• Air purification solutions paired with sensor technology maintain fresher and cleaner air throughout the home by removing harmful pollutants.

Water Purification• Water purification to ensure fresh and clean drinking water.

Home Automation System• The sleep/wake sequence will ensure a better night’s rest and fresh start to every day.

Low-flow Water Fixtures• Low-flow water fixtures in all vanities, tubs, toilets and showers

Wall Paint• Low VOC paint for reduced off-gassing

Insulation• Under Slab Insulation R10• Below Grade Walls Insulation R5 Exterior+R24 Interior• Above Grade Walls Insulation R10 Exterior+R24 Interior• Attic Insulation R60

Windows• Triple Pane

Lighting• LED

Mechanical System• The mechanical systems for the home are all electric, eliminating the use of fossil fuels and substantially improving the carbon impact of operating the home.• Lennox Air Source Heat Pump• Air Handler – 3 zones• Electric Backup Furnace• Ventilation - 75% ERV (vanEE G2400)• Hot Water - Rheem PROPH80• Drain Water Heat Recovery - 42” DWHR unit
