My grandfather and father during the 1970's helped develop one of the first permanent magnet motors designed for wind turbines. Big corporations bought these patents and ever since then, the pursuit of alternative energy solutions has been in my family.
I have been in the construction business for 25 years and also a certified installer of high/low density spray foam insulation for 4 years. I started researching a line of solar powered water heaters produced by VELUX, the innovators of skylights and sun tunnels, thanks to a brother-in-law of mine. Did you know an average family of four uses over 27,500,000 Btu's to heat their water every year with gas or 4,200 kilowatt hours of electricity, averaging anywhere from $500/ yr to $1000/ yr. The aesthetically pleasing low profile solar collectors from VELUX can eliminate up to 80% of that cost! Talk about savings!
LIV GREEN INDUSTRIES, LLC doesn't stop there though we are committed to providing answers to all the costly problems of energy consumption. We carry SolarSheat supplemental space heating, which is completely solar-powered. Two holes and a thermostat later you are receiving free heat up to 140 degrees! Solar air brings warm air to even the most remote spots in your house, on your ranch, or any space you may not have electricity. Speaking of electricity and its outrageous prices, kick that bill to the curb with our photo voltaic off-grid or grid-tied systems from KYOCERA and GE. If you feel you might not get enough sun, no problem, we have wind turbines by AIR BREEZE, WHISPER, and SKYSTREAM of all shapes and sizes with countless applications and wattage outputs.
Sometimes in a home or place of work it is all the little, unnoticed things that contribute to the waste of precious energy and heat. LIV GREEN INDUSTRIES has answers for those problems too. We carry efficient L.E.D. and CFL lighting for new and retrofit jobs, sealed wall and switch plates, Heat/Energy Recovery Ventilators from FANTECH, humidity sensing fans by PANASONIC, advanced door and window trimming, even drain water heat recovery systems that use the heat from your waste water to heat the fresh water you are about to use!
Part of LIVing GREEN involves reusing everyday items. As part of our commitment to the earth we reuse our 55 gallon drums from our E-zero foam to make compost tumblers. We have clothing and accessories made from reused or recycled materials all over the store, even the remodeling we did comes from used or reused materials. Come by or call. We would love to help you gain energy independence and show you how easy it is to Liv Green.
