Eco-Friendly Living: 3 Smart Ways to Go Green in the Shower

February 17th, 2014

With the glass shower doors, soaking tubs and low-flow fixtures, it’s easy to get clean and relax at the newest eco-friendly apartments in San Mateo. Equipped with low-flow fixtures, renters can do so without really impacting the environment or the water shortage the state is facing right now.

Of course, everyone can always do more, and these three tips are easy to incorporate into the shower routine.

  1. Get a non-toxic, PVC free shower curtain. Choose one made of cotton, hemp or another fabric that won’t pollute the environment.
  2. Use non-toxic shower products to clean up. There are plenty of soaps, loofahs and other cleaning aids that won’t damage the water supply while rinsing and drying off.
  3. Measure water usage. There are plenty of gizmos and gadgets to add to the shower that can measure the length of showering, and how just how much water is used.

These are simple things to do, and if everyone does them, it’ll have a big impact.

Maintaining and Caring for EcoQuartz Stone Countertops

January 29th, 2014

888-san-mateo-kitchenOne of the most popular features within our luxury pet-friendly apartments in San Mateo is our EcoQuartz stone countertops.

These add a touch of elegance and class to each and every kitchen, and our residents truly enjoy using them. Of course, like any special amenity, they require a little care and maintenance to keep them looking shiny and new.

Keeping them clean and pretty isn’t that hard to do. They’re durable and nonporous, which means they are impervious to water and other liquids. However, you need to adhere to the following tips.

  • Never use abrasives to clean the counter.
  • Always wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Don’t place hot pans/plates directly on the surface.
  • Never use harsh chemicals or solvents to clean the counter.

If you do all of these things, you won’t ever have to worry about marring the finish or appearance of your countertops. That means you’ll enjoy them as long as you live here and the next residents will enjoy them just as much as you did.

For more information about the EcoQuartz stone countertops in our luxury pet-friendly apartments in San Mateo, contact us and we will be happy to provide you with all of the details.
