Here is part II of the Series on affordable greenovations. A few weeks back I posted Part I.
Here are a few things that you can do to help with Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
1.Use low VOC paints- You can find paints and finishes at the same price point that do not have toxic chemicals in them.
2.Use formaldehyde free carpets (if installing carpet)- this reduces the amount of chemicals introduced into the living environment.
3.Use more durable products that last at least 15 years or more (not the typical 2-5 year)- this will save in the long terms cost of the structure.
4.Set up recycling program- Most waste management companies have green options for you and your tenants
5.Replace all water fixtures with Water Sense fixture- If you are paying the water bill, then this is a no brainer. I have heard from property managers that they have saved quite a bit on water bills by doing this.
