Introduction

The Kendeda Building has many intricacies making it the sustainable building it is today. Seven "Petals" can describe the overall workings and goals of the Kendeda building, the Place, Water, Energy, Health & Happiness, Materials, Equity, and Beauty petals. The Condensate Team focused primarily on the water petal, with an emphasis on the place petal.


The Condensate Team sought to learn more about the unique condensate system at the Kendeda Living Building. The research was primarily focused on any possible potential consequences that may arise with the use of condensate water as Kendeda's primary source of irrigation. Principally focusing on testing water for heavy metals and irrigated plants. As well as test for the presence of Legionnaires disease in the condensate tank.
