Tour Incline’s LEED-registered home
North Lake Tahoe’s first LEED-registered home is well under way in Incline Village and eco-curious individuals and home aficionados can get a sneak-peek of the project Aug. 28.
The Energy Star-rated house, located at 1085 Mill Creek Road, broke ground in late 2009. The project is spearheaded by Jeff Miller, president of Advance Design and Construction, and K.J. Miller of Chase International, who is listing the home. The event is free from 2-6pm.
Professional contractors and suppliers will be on hand to answer questions and give demonstrations of the latest green technologies. Displays will include home-energy monitoring and home automation; LED lighting; high-efficiency furnaces and steam humidifiers; energy-complete insulation systems; Energy Star-rated doors, windows and flooring; low/no VOC paints and stains; Solaris roofing; and on-demand hot water systems.
If I remember correctly, this is the only LEED residential dwelling in the basin. Congrats…..
