Eco Friendly (GOING GREEN)
For more than 50 years, Dental Health Care Associates has been serving families throughout the Delaware County community, offering a complete array of high quality cosmetic and general dentistry services. This renowned and respected practice has now completed a major renovation and expansion of its office space, and has become the first LEED certified "green" dental office on the East coast.
"It's exciting and it's also important. We want Dental Health Care Associates to be a wonderful, environmentally-friendly place for our patients and our employees" says Dr. Lance Panarello. Significant measures were taken to create a state-of-the-art facility that has met and exceeds the Gold certification standards for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) buildings. Environmentally conscious renovations included, but were not limited to:
- Use of recycled building materials throughout, including concrete, siding, and countertops
- Geothermal HVAC
- Solar and wind-powered energy sources
- No-VOC cabinetry, carpets, flooring, and paints
- Underground rainwater collection tank to reduce water wastage
- Water-free landscaping that requires no irrigation
- Abundant windows and lighting domes to make efficient use of natural light sources
- Combination of fresh air and sterilized air sources for optimum indoor air quality
It all adds up to a modern, healthy office that is also respectful to the environment. When the new space is completed, Dental Health Care Associates will offer tours for patients, area residents, schools, and businesses.
