Examples of good sustainable design...
One example of sustainable design which I think is commonly over looked is the combination boiler, also commonly known as a combi-boiler. A combi-boiler combines a water heater and a central heating boiler in one unit, and because it heats the water as it is needed, there is no need for a large water tank, which will appeal to people who have limited space in their homes. This is not the only benefit of heating water as it is needed. There is a large reduction in the amount of gas and electricity used by the boiler, saving people money on bills. As there is no water tank required, much less pipes are having to be put in during installation, and ultimately less resources and materials are consumed with a combi-boiler.
