Things To Do In
Tucson: #1 Gates Pass Take Speedway Blvd. west and it turns into Gates Pass Road. It is
a winding, uphill drive through the beautiful Tucson desert. When you get to the top, park at Gate Pass. You can see a panoramic view of Tucson to the east and of Saguaro National Park
to the west. A great place for beautiful sunrises and sunsets. (see photos on this page) Please be careful, bicyclists love the ride to Gates
Pass as well. Have Fun, Tony Ray

Green Homes
Fortunately, today there
is an increased awareness when it comes to building Green homes in Tucson as well as other cities. From the general public
to government officials, green building is definitely catching on.
Other subcontractors and service providers in Tucson are getting more involved as well.
Landscapers, builders, suppliers, city services and utility companies are moving in the green direction.
The goal of a Green home is to achieve a good balance
between affordability, energy efficiency and conservation of resources while maintaining a healthy, durable and comfortable
home.
Today’s Green
homes utilize:
Recycled materials
Super insulation Solar hot water Solar
heating Gray and rainwater harvesting Active solar and passive convection cooling Solar shading
One of the nice things I’ve noticed about Green homes here in Tucson is that we
are conserving while my clients enjoy beautiful, comfortable, energy efficient homes. And of course, lower utility bills.
Gotta like that.
In new construction,
I’ve noticed some builders are really making an effort to build more green while others are still catching on. However,
most have started offering more green options.
One option I’ve noticed more Tucson builders are offering is radiant barrier insulation. It is ideal
for Tucson and one of the easiest items to add to your new home. Its inexpensive and drops your energy bills dramatically.
It is said to reflect up to 97% of radiant heat and act as a vapor and radon barrier.

Always here to help,
