Home Maintenance
Got a handyman in the house? Working on getting craftier with home maintenance? Either way we've got everything to get you excited about home repairs and renovations (really!) all with an eco-friendly flair. Whether you want to do something big, like install sustainable bamboo flooring, or something smaller, like scrubbing down the bathroom floor with recycled plastic soap pads, there's plenty of equipment to choose from. Add low VOC paints to your green renovations or install Energy Star-rated windows, the sky---or in this case the roof---is the limit. By stealing a page from the LEED handbook and using recycled and nontoxic materials, you'll quickly get your home as eco-friendly as it's ever been.

Energy StarVOC stands for volatile organic compound – basically, any organic compound that evaporates readily into the atmosphere. Here, the term ‘organic’ isn’t a good thing - it means a compound that contains carbon. Typical sources of VOCs include paints, varnishes, moth balls, solvents, gasoline, newspaper, cleaning chemicals, vinyl floors, carpets, adhesives, sealing caulks, air fresheners, and pressed wood furniture. For you, exposure to VOCs can mean eye, nose, and throat irritation, headache, nausea, dizziness, asthma exacerbation, cancer, and liver, kidney, and central nervous system damage. Environmentally, these compounds contribute to global warming and can also damage soil and groundwater.
Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants on the planet and therefore highly sustainable. It is an incredibly versatile plant used for many everyday applications from flooring and wall paneling to paper and fabrics. Some of the processes through which Bamboo is turned from its raw form into usable products can have a negative environmental impact.
Products described as solar-powered use the sun as an energy source, converting sunlight into electricity.
Recycling is the reprocessing of old materials into new products, with the aims of preventing the waste of potentially useful materials, reducing the consumption of fresh raw materials, reducing energy usage, reducing air (from incineration) and water (from landfilling) pollution by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.
Energy Star qualifies products that are 10 to 25% more efficient than required by the federal standard while providing top performance and innovative features.
