What goes into a "Green" house? Who determines what "Green" is, and how green is it?
Are they expensive? What can I do to make my existing home more energy efficient?
Where do I start?
If you live in Pima County Arizona (home to Tucson, Vail, Oro Valley, Marana, Sahuarita, Green Valley & many other communities), good resources are available through the county!
Rich Franz-Under is the Pima County Green Building Program Manager - and he is very helpful as well as knowledgeable about ways to improve your home (new or existing). This past Monday, Rich gave a presentation at the Tucson Association of REALTORS building that was very informative.
I asked him if it would be allright to have a copy of his PowerPoint to make available to the public - I converted it into video format for easier implementation into my blog, but if you would like the original PPT, just send me an email & I'll be glad to send it to you!
In addition to being a resource for the Tucson Metro, under his tutelage, Pima County has become the LEED Provider for all of Arizona, New Mexico & Southern California. If you're thinking LEED in the Southwest - you're going to be visiting Tucson - so look me up!
Check out Rich's webpage at PimaXpress - he is constantly updating it and adding more resources for people to utilize.
