The website EcoHome ran an article this week outlining six trends for green homes. They include the obvious: energy efficiency, density and location (high gas prices and long commutes are driving this trend), health, performance monitoring, water conservation and getting more for the money. Highlighted in the article is Rheem’s SRCC-labeled Solaraide passive solar water heating system that is easy to install, attaches to the roof and doesn’t require pumps or controllers.
