Healthy, energy-efficient gas fireplaceGood stewardship of our environment through our building practices is what Grey Lundberg, Inc. is all about. We believe that what you can’t see matters – that a home should be healthy for the inhabitants, energy efficient, environmentally responsible and built to last for generations. Green building practices and products are a key part of how we build. Grey Lundberg, Inc. continuously researches the latest technologies and analyzes the energy systems in the home in order to provide healthy, comfortable, and high-performance homes to our clients.
Elements of green building include:
Water-based, no chemical offgassing spray foam insulationThe use of low formaldehyde and low volatile organic compound (VOC) products results in the reduced off-gassing of chemicals. Better-designed heating and air cleaning systems for filtering the air and removing air contaminants provide the homeowners cleaner air for as long as they live in the home. Techniques and products that limit water and moisture intrusion and practices which limit the risk of mold growth in a home are also key elements in creating a healthier indoor environment.
Mechanical room hosts high-performance systemsWe specialize in the construction of high-performance homes. Products and highly efficient mechanical systems are utilized to conserve water, consume less energy, operate quieter, and have lower utility costs for homeowners.
Plant "Living Wall" requires no irrigationWe incorporate recycled or recyclable products, rapidly renewable materials, or locally produced products and services whenever possible. Highly durable materials are used to create homes which require far less maintenance than traditionally constructed homes, resulting in fewer resources consumed and reduced homeowner costs throughout the life of the home.
