Building an eco-friendly home

Posted on August 31, 2018 by Robert Hadiwidjaja

While most homes today are still being built the conventional way, there quite a few home makers that are choosing to live an eco-friendly life. While you may think that building an eco-friendly home will be very costly, you will find that any additional initial cost you invest in to your new home will easily be covered up in the first few years that you live in your home based on the lack of extremely high electricity bill and water bills. Many home owners who live in conventional homes do not realize just how much money they pay annually and throughout their lives in electricity and water bills.

Building an eco-friendly home

When analyzed, the initial money you will need to invest in making your home an eco-friendly home as opposed to a conventionally built home is a fraction of that cost paid by conventional home owners over a lifetime. As an additional benefit, you will also be doing your part to help the environment. The governments of some countries will pay you an additional monthly incentive to build a solar powered home or to have a led PUCK lights done for your current home, for the reason that, the energy you harvest daily from your solar grids will be far more than you will need to use on an average day, hence the additional energy harvested will get transferred right back in to the electrical grid for other uses to make use of.

Natural light for your home

While, having a solar installation done for your home will power up any lights you will need for your home, you may additionally make use for natural light for your home. When building your home, replace as many walls as you can with thick transparent glass in order to make the maximum out of the natural day light from the sun. Have thick curtain made at all your glass walls so you will be able to close them when you need to have additional privacy. When you do not have use of natural light, either in the nights or when your curtains are drawn, you may make use of solar energy to power your lights.

Natural water heating

To have you water heated naturally without the use of a water heater, you may install metal pipes along your roof that can be placed in the form of a zigzag in order to store more water. During the day, as the metal pipes heat up for the sun, they will automatically heat the water in side of them. You may have your plumber fixe your plumbing in such a way that you will be able to mix the hot water from your metal pipes and harvested rain water to make comfortable Luke warm water for your needs.
