Parfait WL-edition: A Sustainable Housing Solution for Tohoku's Dual-Income Families
In March 2024, Sekisui Heim Tohoku Co., Ltd., headquartered in Sendai, Miyagi, proudly unveiled the Parfait WL-edition, a new sustainable housing product designed specifically for dual-income households in Japan's Tohoku region. This innovative residence incorporates solar power, storage batteries, and gas, enhancing its resilience against natural disasters and geopolitical risks, which have become increasingly prominent in the area.
The Tohoku region has been prone to severe natural events and harsh winter weather, requiring stable energy solutions and multiple lifelines to ensure residents' comfort and safety. Notably, dual-income households in this region tend to seek efficiency and a balanced lifestyle that provides enough leisure time despite their busy schedules. The Parfait WL-edition is uniquely tailored to meet these households' needs, combining efficient living with innovative energy solutions.
Key Features of Parfait WL-edition
1.
W-Lifeline: The integration of a solar panel (PV) system, battery storage, and gas connections for a combined “double lifeline,” ensuring stable living conditions during both normal and emergency situations. Even during power outages, households can benefit from the electric supply, and if inadequate solar energy is produced during harsh winter conditions, the gas supplement allows residents access to heating and hot water.
2.
Well Living: The architectural design of the Parfait WL-edition prioritizes reducing the household workload for dual-income families, allowing for a more comfortable and spacious living space. Specifically, the design offers various living patterns to streamline daily activities, with an efficient flow between functional areas, thus maximizing both comfort and time savings.
3.
Worth Long Time: The durability and resilience of the materials ensure that these homes retain their value over time, providing long-term support and after-service guarantees to their residents. High-quality wall tiles and stainless-steel roofing contribute to a lasting aesthetic appeal with lower maintenance costs.
