Eco-farm that uses the energy of the sun and earth
American environmental Linda Yates and Paul Holland had built in California, eco-farm of your dream, which lay in the fact that their farm has had a regenerating effect on the environment.
Most of the construction materials recycled: recycled steel roofing, fireplaces of secondary limestone, wood from a dismantled barn that was built over a century ago. Water waste water enters the septic system for processing, and then used for irrigation. An underground cistern collects rainwater, which is also used for watering the garden.
Heating of the farm is carried out by using a geothermal pump system extracting heat accumulated in the ground, and uses it for system warm floor. Ventilation system with recuperation pre-heat or cool incoming building air using exhaust air. On the slopes of the two roofs installed 120 solar panels with a total capacity of 7 kW, which abundantly provide all the energy needs, generating electricity for household and business needs. Eco-fermata.Mah.Lah has received for its environmental friendliness and high efficiency platinum LEED certification.
