Thermal Mass
Thermal mass is the ability of a material to absorb and store heat energy. A lot of heat energy is required to change the temperature of high density materials like concrete, bricks and tiles. They are therefore said to have high thermal mass. Lightweight materials such as timber have low thermal mass.
Smart Home
Insteon produces over 200 products using its technology, including LED bulbs, wall switches, wall keypads, sensors, thermostats, plug in modules and embedded devices, along with central controllers for system management. Insteon markets two different central controllers: its own brand, called the Insteon Hub, and a newer HomeKit-enabled Insteon Hub Pro designed for Apple HomeKit compatibility. In 2012, the company introduced the first network-controlled LED light bulb.
Polished Floors
An Affinity home comes standard with beautiful polished floors. Our polished floors gives the appearance of the floors found in the mansions in Hollywood with out breaking the bank. Set with a proprietary product know as Whipcrete™ which is then ground, then polished. Each floor can be color matched to your preference.
Radiant Heat
Although an Affinity home needs very little heating and air conditioning, the homes are fitted with a radiant floor system as well as geothermal technology. Low cost temperatures year round.
European Plaster
Many of the greatest mural paintings in Europe, like Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, are executed in fresco, meaning they are painted on a thin layer of wet plaster, called intonaco; the pigments sink into this layer so that the plaster itself becomes the medium holding them, which accounts for the excellent durability of fresco. Additional work may be added a secco on top of the dry plaster, though this is generally less durable.
11' Ceilings
One of the first things a realtor will point out to prospective home buyers or apartment tenants is a high ceiling. To many of us, anything above the standard eight-foot ceiling is a big selling point. In recent times, home buyers have tended to pony up for the amenity of nine-foot ceilings; in the abstract, when added heights aren’t adding to mortgages or rents, people prefer their ceilings 10 feet high. Part of the appeal of high ceilings is no doubt related to a general preference for space.
