Las Casas Verdes - Green Building in Austin

PostAuthorIcon Author: Lesa Parham | PDF Print E-mail

The Las Casas Verdes 3 acre subdivision plan includes shady, tree-lined roads, a park, a substantial common garden area and hiking-biking trails. The location is walking distance from major shopping areas, located on mass transit routes and included in one of the most highly rated senior high school districts in the area.

The Homes:

The custom designed, 1,800 square foot homes will all be unique in some ways, but will all share certain architectural styles. Each home will have an office, media room, alcove and large outdoor decks.

Standard Energy Efficient Features:

- 3KW Solar Photovoltaic System for generating electricity and Solar Thermal panels for hot water with a gas powered tankless water heater as back-up.
- Rainwater Collection System to store water for toilets, laundry and plant irrigation.
- SEER rated heating and cooling system.
- Homes will be constructed with prefabricated structural insulated panels in the walls and roof. They offer higher insulation values, tighter seals and less waste.
- Heat recirculation HVAC ducts to reuse pre-heated air in the winter.
- Low VOC paints, reflected metal roofs and recycled/green building materials.
- Automatic light switches will be used wherever possible. Lesa Parham
