About the Projects
Monastery Heating, Cooling & Ventilation
-
Bring the monastery building up to the current standard in California.
-
Make the building safer for visitors and residents, especially during wildfire and power emergencies in our area.

Make the indoor spaces more Covid-safe for gatherings.
At present the monastery has only one functional gas radiator for the entire building, no mechanical ventilation system for protection from air pollution and wildfire smoke, no cooling to cope with future climate change, no protection from power outages, and no ventilation system for Covid safety.
