The Green Room

Passive solar design can be the most cost effective and beneficial addition to any home.
The benefits go beyond energy savings to include the anti-depressive effects of living in an environment filled with diffuse light and the ability to increase the oxygen levels in your home by adding plants. See this amazing talk of recent scientific research: http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/kamal_meattle_on_how_to_grow_your_own_fresh_air.html

Because each installation is custom designed for each location, virtually any home or condo with a south-facing wall can take advantage of this unique application.
We use two layers of double or triple wall GE polycarbonate to achieve an insulation value that is at least double that of modern thermal pane windows commonly used.
In addition, the glazing frames can be constructed of any of a wide range of sustainable wood product to create a beautiful architectural feature. Any room can be enhanced by the installation of a passive solar wall from dining room to personal spa. Contact us for a free consultation to find out how you can benefit from a Green Room.
