Green homes have lower than historic levels of environmental impact, and believe it or not its easier than you think to go green. Here are some tips to make your Austin home more eco-friendly:
When building your new Austin home make sure you use recycled products.
Install low-flow shower heads and water-saving toilets and taps.
Install high-efficiency, double paned windows with low E-coatings.
If you are looking to move into a green community look for the following in your new residential development:
Look for communities that utilize a mass transit system.
Does the community offer bike paths, on- site recreation options and spa services? I shopping and dining found close by? One of the best ways for a community to be green is by reducing the miles that residents need to travel.
Look for a LEED Certification. This certification rates buildings and communities on their energy efficiency, consumption as well as earth-friendly features.
