Welcome to Green Kelowna Real Estate!
What is Green Kelowna Real Estate? Is it how a home is built? Is it in the materials used when doing a renovation or upgrade? Is it the location? How about the environment around the home?
There are many things that come to mind when you think about sustainability in Kelowna. One of the easiest, most cost effective ways to become eco-friendly is nearest to our hearts… our HOMES. Every corner of our home can provide us with ways to cut energy use, save money, and surround ourselves with healthy and non-toxic products. Things you may consider are heating/cooling techniques, water consumption, grey water re-cycling, xeriscape vs drought tolerant landscaping, insulation, renewable finishings, indoor air quality, solar and wind power and much more.
This website is for those who believe now is the time to take action and start to be planet friendly with our most valuable asset… our homes! You’ll find accurate and up-to-date information about the following on our Green Links page:
