Northern Building & Carpentry Fights Climate Change with Green Practices

Climate change is affecting the way professionals design and build dwellings for the immediate and far future. Northern Building & Carpentry owner, Bill Arwas, has been on the cutting edge of green, passive and sustainable building technology for over a decade. The company employs the methods for new building projects, renovations, and retrofitting heritage structures.

An estimated 78 percent of all carbon emissions come from traditional building and construction practices in the form of heating, cooling, lighting, along with the methods used during the actual construction process. One of the most effective ways of combatting climate change is by increasing the performance of structures using technological advances that are sustainable, green, and passive.

The sustainable home builders Melbourne utilizes a variety of methods that reduce waste, increase energy and water efficiency, and encompass the use of eco-friendly materials. Those practices also serve to improve the environmental quality of indoor environments. All of those techniques and more result in home construction and renovation that reduces the carbon footprint while remaining aesthetically pleasing.

There are many types of green building practices that can be employed, many of which people aren’t even aware, including rooftop gardens. The green home builders Melbourne are experienced with solar power, LED lighting and energy efficient systems for heating and cooling. The entire green process begins by designing homes that are synchronous to the environment.

Passive home building is one way to reduce the impact of climate change and global warming through well-ventilated, highly-insulated, and energy efficient practices in homes and other structures. The passive house builder Melbourne utilizes airtight doors and windows, along with heat recovery ventilation systems.

Homes built with sustainable, green and passive methods by Northern Building & Carpentry save money, reduce the carbon footprint, and help fight climate change. Homes built using those techniques have also been proven to have a positive psychological impact on all who dwell in them - from people to pets.
