- Replaced T12 linear fluorescents with HPT8 fluorescents
- Changed out 24x7 Exit Signs and string lights to LED
- Deployed a fluorescent bulb recycling program

- HVAC: Replace aging and inefficient A/C
- Twenty One (21) new units are >40% more efficient and use R410A refrigerant (non-ozone depleting Freon). Bundled with a ten year parts and labor manufacturer's warranty, annual maintenance and repair costs are reduced by 80%.
Building Envelope: Control the Building Environment

- Installed programmable thermostats to control building temperature and costs
Solar: Generate your own electricity from the sun

host building. As proven, a similar 30kW facility is envisioned for the Clubhouse Rotunda
later in 2010.
Project Program Benefits include:
- Utility, Maintenance and Repair Savings exceeding $100K annually!
- Tons of CO2 and SOx /NOx emissions saved each year
