ERV

WE Love Fresh Air

WE LOVE ERV!

ERV. What is it? Energy Recovery Ventilation. The basics are these: Fresh air comes in. Stale air goes out. And the heat or cool, (energy), that you paid for with your utility bill dollars goes from the exiting “stale air” to the incoming “fresh air”, conserving said dollars. The machine that makes this energy transfer happen is called an ERV.

I start with my proposal and then explain ERV further; full story below! Check it out!

 

GREENHOUSE

Hello and thanks for taking a look! Enclosed you will find our video description of our greenhouse concept; in brief, we use the earth itself as a thermal modulator by digging a deep pit and lining it with water pipes. The water flow then cools and heats the greenhouse winter to summer and all seasons in between, with low to no noise, with low speed high volume fans. Greenhouses provide beauty, food security, and with us, an outdoor jacuzzi space! Please check out the video!

The Love of Building

Hello to my wonderful customers!

I have been building since I was 4, but I've never talked about the reason I build. Wow do I ever have a lot to say about this! I will be adding my words here in the next couple of days, and I'm excited; stand by!

Found Heart Images for Business Cards

Street View

 

Hello customers!

For years now I have been keeping a sharp eye for hearts in the environment; I've found ones in the natural world, in industry, on the job site. These now grace my business cards and I'm sharing them here. They are fun! And they bring a spot of joy amidst the sometimes tedious and difficult world of making a living!

This lead-in image is of a fragment of Tyvek house wrap inadvertently cut into the shape of a heart.

This next image I found in an intersection in Los Alamos on the way to the work site. Grit is everywhere, as is love!

Tables

Bench with Forged Steel Legs

Hello potential client/visitor-to-our site!

Amongst other activities we make maple burl tables! These gems are fashioned from Western Big Leaf Maple Burl. They are a fusion of effort between my team and that of the fine steel work of "Dulfer Metal Llc". My friend and colleague Steve Dulfer, master blacksmith, is shown here in the photos.
