Were going green
In an effort to conserve energy we are making the mechanical systems (heating, hot water, water conservation, electrical) more efficient by a series of controls, piping and combining systems to use less energy and conserve water. We ask our guests to join us in our efforts by not wasting hot water, turning down the thermostats when you leave for you're daily activities and re-use you're towels if your staying more than one night. If we all do our part, we can make a difference. If you're interested in our mechanical/electrical changes visit www.djbmechanical.com and click on case studies, 37 unit motel.
