Denver Luxury Developers Going Green
Posted by TheHomeCartTeam on Thursday, August 16th, 2012 at 5:48pm.With more than 300 days of yearly sunshine and urban and outdoor amenities, Denver luxury living is apparent. Denver builders are doing their part with many of the luxury builders going “green”. Following are a few ways that the builders are constructing eco-friendly homes.
1. Wooden floors. Many builders are now using eco-friendly wood flooring like eucalyptus, palm and bamboo products. The woods are a sustainable choice and a wonderful alternative to the traditional oak flooring.
2. Insulation. UltraTouch UltraTouch is a new flame resistant product that many builders are using and one that is crafted from high quality natural fibers offering optimal thermal performance.
3. Kitchen countertops. Builders are turning to green countertops for luxury homes which include glass tile, butcher block countertops, paperstone, and richelite. The countertops are attractive and do not contain volatile organic compounds or formaldehyde.
4. Water efficiency. Builders are installing Energy Star products that lessen water use. These products include dual flush toilets, washers and dryers and faucets.
5. Stains and paints. Stains and paint with earth based paint materials are being used that do not pose the threat to the environment or the homeowners as they do not contain hazardous materials. These include soy based products.
