Casa Aguila will arguably be the most advanced home ever built in San Diego County, looking to achieve many firsts for our region. It will be San Diego's first Certified Passive House, seek the County's first onsite wastewater treatment permit, seek the County's first permit to utilize all collected rainwater for all indoor water use, and strive for eventual grid-disconnection through utilization of battery power, Solar PV, and a 45-foot wind turbine (the blades alone are 17 feet tall!).

The project is located in Ramona, CA and is named for the Golden Eagles which frequently fly over the property.

Greywater, stormwater, and blackwater

You can see the food forest irrigation system starting to develop! This will be irrigated by San Diego's first residental blackwater recycling system.

Not even a 5 ton boulder can get in our way! We've met our fair share of them on this project.

Say hello to the first of eight 10,000 gallon rain and stormwater collection tanks
