Life on the coast predominantly combines the beautiful ocean, warm breezes, and lively landscapes. However, more than ever, homeowners understand their role in protecting the environment with sustainable practices. Keeping coastal Florida beautiful by reducing waste, limiting energy consumption, lowering water usage, and similar strategies. Remodeling your bathroom gives you a distinct opportunity to enhance the efficiency and durability of your home, which are essential strategies when combating Florida’s humid climate.
Three Eco-Focused Remodeling Ideas
When considering bathroom remodeling for Vero Beach homes, sustainable and efficiency-focused practices are becoming more and more of the focus. There are three trending ways to go green with your new bathroom remodeling plan, including:
- Efficient Fixtures for Conservation
While it might seem you are surrounded by water on Vero Beach, conservation is a rewarding effort for many Florida property owners. Remodels can focus on actively reducing water waste, such as installing low-flow toilets, efficient faucets and fixtures, or even innovative shower components that regulate temperature and runoff.
- Withstanding Humidity with Sustainable Materials
Sustainable materials showcase a desire for eco-friendly construction, but they do not have to forgo resistance to the moisture of Florida’s typical humid environment. Consider components like recycled glass for an attractive and elegant backsplash, or use resistant yet easily sourced materials like luxury vinyl plank or porcelain for flooring.
- New Lighting in Your Bathroom for a Brighter Future
One of the best ways to improve the lighting in your soon-to-be-remodeled bathroom is to use one of Florida’s most abundant resources: sunshine. Skylights or solar tubes can bring in light throughout the day, reducing dependency on artificial fixtures. Any artificial lighting should be LEDs, which use less energy and last longer. This is a win-win for the eco-conscious homeowner.
