Renewable energy.  A phrase that's used with some frequency in conversation today, but something that's not used quite as often in actual practice.  The Wolf Pack endeavors to change that.  Not simply through applying the related technologies in a cookie cutter fashion, but through incorporating them where and when they make sense.  Practical, sustainable design solutions.  Our team presents decades of experience in the design and application of related technologies.  To name a few:

• Super-Insulation
• Passive Solar
• Geo-Thermal
• Solar-Thermal
• Photovoltaics
• Rain Water Harvesting
• Bio-Swales

Sustainability does not lie simply in utilizing systems such as those listed above, but also encompasses efficient design, maintenance and utilization of various components of the structure itself.  Building layout, mechanical, electrical and plumbing design and associated features...all things that contribute to the efficiency of any building.  All things that can be provided by the Wolf Pack.  Our Sustainability experts can present many examples of sustainable buildings and are very familiar with LEED accredidation and related incentives.  Many of us can offer our own homes as prime examples of Sustainable living.

Whether it be retrofitting an existing building to improve energy efficiency and lower monthly utility bills, or new construction striving for LEED certification and a minimized environmental footprint, the Wolf Pack is your solution.
