The Mary Ann implemented wholistic upgrades by participating in the Oregon Multifamily Energy Program (OR-MEP). These upgrades are designed to improve the quality of life for the families residing at The Mary Ann and reduce their monthly energy bills. The Mary Ann is a multifamily property serving families with an average income below 45% of the area median income in Beaverton. The Mary Ann incorporated ERVs into the design. According to REACH, that upgrade would not have been possible without the help of OR-MEP funding.

“The energy recovery ventilation system (ERV) with ducted supply and return air to each apartment not only saves energy but also provides each resident with healthy fresh air free from odors or other airborne particles.”
