ECO house design
The design I came up with was based on watching a RowHouse project take so long to build and have a high retail price.
With endless delays and bad weather, I was walking by the project and then I had the "Flash of Genius" moment as it hit me that Building Homes hasn't changed since my High School days 40 years ago.The Patent ability is a bit vague because it is not a new item but a way to assemble it,so I think the Social benefit is worth me displaying at this point.The images show a basic home floor plan but my concept is to speed-up the construction and ruduce the risks for fire which saves on the pollution and trees needed to rebuild the home. I changed how the Utilities are delivered from the basement,the home also does not use a forced air heating because I don't like how Air Ducts trap dust and spores that make the home a toxic for kids so a Elecrical heating with Solar aid avoids a future run-away cost to heat the home.
I removed the Wiring and Plumbing from most walls which by-passes the delays for contractors and Inspectors to approve the work,this also means the outer walls can have more Insulation in the cavities for a better R rating in the cold weather.Up-grades or add-ons to homes can be done very easily along with future wiring/plumbing up grades,and with a home that can be asembled faster and is less likely to have a Electrical fire go undetected and become dangerous.
The outer walls in cold climates won't have frozen pipes bursting or have energy wasted from cooling the stagnant hot-water pipes in walls. Home Insurance will be less for the Fire risks,and if it adds my Accessible-Kitchen concept and G.A.R. faucet system for Kids-Safe home is allows people to stay in their home after a minor injury that make them wheelchair bound for awhile as they also have children.
Please check out the Shriners reports for Kids being burned and suffer scalds at home.about 90% of injuries to kids happen near the home,90% of those are inside the home and 90% of those are in the Kitchen or Bathroom.Burns are mainly in the Kithcen and scalds from hot water in the Bathrooms.
We can't keep building homes the same-old way because that's the way it is. It's time to get the price down and make them safer for kids and seniors.
The bathroom example shows the delays from so many Conractors and inspectors.
