- VERDE Solar
Alta Verde is delivering one of the first production home flat solar arrays, providing life cycle cost savings and a net zero carbon footprint. The integrated design is optimized by modern architectural elements and the VERDE-monitor.
- Multi-Zone System
All room/multi-zone single condensing unit system provides the highest flexibility in climate control and homeowner comfort. The lines group and disperse through the AV Core Wall for maximum efficiency and reducing wasteful heat-up/ cool-down cycles by eliminating duct distribution.
- AVG Core Wall/VERDE Monitor
A 3-foot thick cavity wall dramatically runs the length of the entire residence and contains all major building systems, smart technology, and low voltage systems for communication, data and security. Our VERDE Monitor is the in-wall interface that invites the homeowner to communicate directly with the performance of the entire home, and interact with community resources.
- Thermal Mass Walls
AV designs incorporate 8-inch thick, insulated concrete masonry walls balance temperature fluctuations, reducing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. The walls store heat from winter solar exposure and release the heat during night time. The walls insulate the house from extreme summer heat gain.
- Low-E Glazing
High efficiency, anodized storefront window systems maximize natural light and minimizes noise reduction, surpassing Title 24 and CalGreen standards.
- The No-Hall Effect
We eliminate most all square footage for wasted circulation of hallways and niches-decoration, and return 20% more usable square footage to your living spaces. The space as a whole is far more efficient to cool and heat and provides substantial architectural drama to our homes.
- Reclaimed Content Material
AVG integrates sustainable materials such as counter tops made with reclaimed glass/cement matrix.
- Car Charging
Our garages are pre-wired for dedicated electric recharging points supplying fast charging of e-vehicles.
- Sustainable Construction Methods
We use only low-pollutant emitting interior finish materials, we conserve natural resources, and we recycle over 50% of the construction waste material process.
