We also seek the flexibility to accept installation of innovative concepts to ensure continuous updating of technology, constantly keeping at the forefront of sustainability, with an investment of just 5% more of the total cost of the building site.
New renewable energy resources are appearing constantly and we want to be able to install, add value to the concept and minimize the footprint that our business inevitably generates. We educate and promote the use of these technologies, so that they can be applied to other ventures, private homes, or any building that requires them.A great achievement is that the Puerto Piramide’s building code was modified based on sustainability parameters introduced by Del Nómade Eco Lodge.
To achieve this goal, we first constructed a building of 400 m2, consisting of a ground floor, first floor and second floor with separate entrance for a private apartment. The heat balance optimization was the first step to prevent heat loss, which is why we started by building solid walls and large windows all sealed with double glazed (DVH) to avoid unnecessary heat loss and allow the entry of solar energy as light and heat.
The main entrance has a small hall which is designed so that one door is opened first, then the second one, a layout that significantly reduces the entry of outside air into the building. We knew that to achieve a construction with thermal and luminous environments, we have to guarantee to maintain the internal temperature in the range of temperature between 20 and 24 degrees, without unnecessary losses.
