Economics

One of the more impressive features of living in the Kress Plaza is the low monthly cost of electricity. In designing the Kress Plaza condominiums energy consumption was a concern not taken lightly. Extensive engineering efforts was placed on determining present “R-Values” and what if scenarios relative to heating and cooling. Values were placed on size and type of HVAC systems to be used, type and amount of insulation to be installed and the over design of the condominium suites. With all this information gathered the puzzle was put together to provide a very comfortable and economical living environment. Kress Plaza takes great pride in this achievement.

"Living in the Kress Plaza is very economical. The average monthly Duke Energy power bill in 2008 was $59. This includes Heating/Air, hot water and cooking which we do frequently."
