Materials
• Low water use plumbing fixtures

• Cabinets and trims made from
  composite wood that contain no
  urea-formaldehyde resins

• Carpeting and pad that has been part of
  the Carpet and Rug Institute Green Label
  Plus Program

• Energy Star Program:
    - Appliances
    - Lighting Fixtures
    - Water Heater
    - Mechanical Equipment

• Windows exceeding Energy Star
  performance requirements, with a U-factor
  and SHGC of <= 0.35 for the region

• Roof insulation containing more than 20%
  recycled material

• Finish materials with low emissions
  (radon gas, etc.) ratings such as paint,
  cabinets, carpet, linoleum, trim, tile, etc.

• SolaTubes® will be installed in each
  residential unit for added “daylighting”
  in bathrooms and closets

Construction Highlights
• Judicious use of locally supplied products
  (low energy impact to transport)

• ICF (Insulating Concrete Form) Block is a
  wall system that integrates the use of foam
  and reinforced poured concrete. Together
  they create a substantial “R” value
  resulting in significant energy savings.
  Our wall construction approach leads to
  an equivalent rating of R58 and higher

• Using ICF Block for the walls helps
  reduce construction waste by 60% to
  the local landfill

• Project is landscaped in Xeriscape.
  Plants are indigenous and after a brief
  period of watering (while they become
  established) will sustain themselves with
  local rainfall

• Havasu Hills has mitigated
  erosion and run-off by providing a water
  retention system that will collect water
  from newly constructed hard surfaces
  (black-top, etc.) and distribute the flow to
  levels from before the site was developed
