The walls make up the largest surface area in our homes, so we use only paints containing no VOCs— volatile organic compounds that make up that “new paint” smell. VOCs pose health risks for people and pets, so we choose VOC-free alternatives.

In new construction, we choose products that minimize VOCs, and our maintenance team uses only low-VOC and no-VOC adhesives and caulk for repairs.

Air filters in your heating and air conditioning system can catch airborne particles that can contribute to asthma and allergies. To keep your system working its best, our maintenance team will change your air filter quarterly.

Our maintenance team uses the gentlest cleaning solutions possible to get the job done. When strong chemicals are occasionally required, we take the highest precautions to ensure that we protect our team and your indoor air quality.

Smoking is not permitted indoors in any of our communities. Eco Modern Flats, Wilson Park Apartments, Uptown Shops, and Brick Avenue Lofts are smoke-free, indoors and out.

When pest control is required, we choose the least toxic, mildest approach possible.

To minimize accumulation of moisture and allergens, we choose hard surface floors for living areas in new construction, and when flooring in existing properties must be replaced, we replace it with hard surface flooring.

In new construction, we prioritize fresh-air ventilation including operable windows, sensor-controlled bathroom exhaust fans, and ducted kitchen exhaust to dissipate indoor air pollutants.
