PROJECT OVERVIEW

This privately owned multifamily apartment building was designed and constructed using high energy-efficient technologies, Elite Lighting LED Fixtures, Daikin cooling and heating VRF.

 

Making the correct capital improvements on your building can be essential to the amount of energy cost savings you will achieve. Improved indoor air quality (IAQ), occupant wellness, and lower maintenance costs are just a few other benefits associated with the correct systems. The energy-efficient construction measures made on this apartment building allowed them to achieve a significant 51.32% in energy cost savings.

 

The successful implementation and upgrade to various systems have made the taxpayer of the EECBP eligible for a §179D Tax Deduction of $199,563.52
