r 7000 Ground Source Heating and Cooling BUILDING At Del Ridge Homes, we believe that nov more than ever, we must be mindful ofthow and where we use energy, and particularly, how we can save it. As costs to access traditional energy increases and the politics and environmental costs of using fossil fuels skyrockets, the need to utilize alternative forms of energy has never been so urgent. And while many are talking about it, Del Ridge is doing something about it. Through the use of revolutionary alternative technologies we're not just constructing buildings today, we're building for a more sustainable tomorrow. Alternative technologies such as exterior and unit walls made from insulated concrete forms, hollowcore floors, roofing that's double the traditional R rating, and access to solar and wind power. All in all, providing a living space we can all live with. f Energy Saving Measures • ICF we$onstruction throughout • R50 roof insulation • Low-E Argon windows • Hollowimiconcrete floors • Energy efficient lighting • Solar powered parking lot lighting Motion-sensored common lighting • Insulated water piping • Recycling facilities B anketed water heaters • Dual flush toilets • Programmable thermostats Energy Producing Measures e Ground source heating and cooling • On grid electricity from wind turbines • On grid electricity from roof solar arrays For a complete list of energy efficiencies found in this building see the Del Ridge Enerbook.
