Products
This is a list of products that I am interested in researching and using in my design strategies, particularly as they relate to energy efficiency and use reduction. Sometimes, I will comment on the products. Primarily, I will use the information from the products’ websites and refer you to the site or blog for your consideration.
If you have experience with any of the products, feel free to leave a comment.
Have you discovered products and wish to make referrals to sites that all our readers should be aware of? Are there products you wish someone would design to make your design process more environmentally sound? If so, leave a comment.
Mitsubishi Electric Systems
Using and researching this company’s energy efficient products for a new project not a huge project but bigger than a house. Interested in the zone heating and cooling systems:
City Multi VRFZ systems – cooling and heating systems similar to heat pump VAC system combination
Split- Ductless systems – ease of installation and regulated, contractors can figure out, the zone issues are lessened and relieved.
Mitsubishijettowel.com - speed and energy efficiency.
Also exploring LED lighting solutions but have not found a specific group or company I want to delve into yet!
Am open to suggestions and comments

Kyddryns last blog post..Another Kind of Vote
@Kyddryn, thank you for checking my blog. I was grateful to have Blogger Dad helping me to set it up.
We work on being Kermit!
My attempt is to research and explore a new product per week, usually ones that we are working with on site with a design scheme.
This week we have been looking at affordability issues of solar panels and energy efficient laundry equipment. Post will be forthcoming.
