Live sustainably
"Greening" your home
provides an opportunity to reduce
home energy demands, reduce
home maintenance costs and increase
comfort efficiently and cost-effectively.
And, most importantly, help you live more sustainably. By incorporating environmentally friendly products and green ideas into your home improvement projects, you can minimize the ecological impacts and
maximize the resource efficiency, while also creating
a healthier and more economical
environment to live.
The Green Remodeling Plan Book is a tool to help you make home remodeling choices that benefit your family, your pocket book, and the neighborhood you live in. Assembled by the Roseville Housing and Redevelopment Authority (RHRA) in collaboration with the Family Housing Fund (The Fund), the Plan Book addresses the complex issues and choices homeowners face when making renovations, presenting strategies by what they are, why they work, and how to implement them. It introduces certifications that exist to ensure you get what you want without having to be an expert.
