Weston; LEED Requirements (S30E14)
S30E14
Master carpenter Norm Abram teams up with Michelle Moore from the U.S. Green Building Council to explore the criteria for the LEED for Homes program and how the Weston residence can meet these standards. Landscape contractor Roger Cook lays down porous pavers for the driveway, while a crane carefully positions a Port Orford cedar pergola on the front lawn. Woodworker Kevin Bittenbender from Bensonwood demonstrates how to create and install window trim kits. General contractor Tom Silva showcases a sleek industrial steel staircase, enhanced by reclaimed Douglas fir treads. Meanwhile, Norm and designer Carole Freehauf visit Esther's Island in Nantucket, Massachusetts, to discover a developer's innovative off-grid luxury living solution.
