F.A.Q. Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some common questions about Living-Walls and Vertical Gardens.
What do Living-Walls cost?
There are a lot of variables to consider be it indoor or outdoor, edible or ornamental plants. Generally speaking installed system cost approximately $130 - $250 per square foot depending on the quality of the system and the company you work with.
Are Living-Walls worth it?
Wow. There are innumerable benefits, but here are just a few of our favorites:
Improved Air Quality- Living walls can filter pollutants and toxins from the air, improving indoor air quality by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.
Thermal Insulation- Green walls act as natural insulators, helping to regulate indoor temperatures. This can reduce heating and cooling costs by providing an extra layer of insulation.
Noise Reduction- The plants and their growing medium can help absorb and deflect sound, making living walls effective at reducing noise pollution in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Enhanced Aesthetics- Living walls provide a visually appealing and dynamic element to any space. They can transform dull walls into vibrant, living art pieces, enhancing the overall design and ambiance.
Biophilic Design Benefits- Incorporating living walls into spaces aligns with biophilic design principles, which emphasize the human connection to nature. This can improve occupants' well-being, reducing stress and increasing productivity.
Increased Property Value- A well-maintained living wall can enhance the appeal and value of a property. It's a unique selling point that differentiates a property from others in the market.
Biodiversity and Ecosystem Support- Living walls can support local biodiversity by providing habitats for insects and birds, contributing to the ecological health of urban environments.
Sustainability and Environmental Impact- By integrating plants into urban settings, living walls contribute to sustainable building practices, reducing the overall carbon footprint and promoting environmental stewardship.
Brand Image and Corporate Responsibility- For businesses, living walls can enhance corporate image by demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. This can resonate positively with clients, customers, and employees.
Health and Wellness- Exposure to plants and greenery has been shown to improve mental health and well-being. Living walls can create a more pleasant and healthier environment for occupants.
Are Living-Walls high maintenance?
Depending on what system you deploy there will be different maintenance requirements. However, you can expect plants to grow and in so doing they will need trimming accordingly. It is important to keep a close eye on the soil. Too much or too little water will create challenges to the plants. Soil is the leading indicator of a health.
How long to Living-Walls last?
We have walls that have been installed and thriving for over 8 years with no plant swaps or substitutions. With proper care and feeding a vertical garden will last as long as a traditional garden plant. Dr Craig Kolodge taught me that the old decaying roots (also called root fluff) become the new soil by which the plants feed in a carbon exchange for sugar.
How long does it take to install a Living-Walls?
A basic residential wall, ranging in size from 40-80 SQF should take 3-5 days. Our typical residential installs take 1-2 days for the hardware and 1-2 days of planting, which are typically conducted offsite. Indoor walls typically take longer.
Can you make your own Living-Wall?
There are a lot of DIY resources available including kits that we sell. Youtube and Pinterest are good resources for such, but it is important to get an engineered system that will allow the plants to mimic a natural environment that would include good soil health, proper irrigation, drainage, circulation and consideration for exposure to the sun.
What are the disadvantages of Living-Walls?
Similar to a salt water fish tank, living walls are remarkable and require proper care and feeding to stay remarkable.
Do Living-Walls create moisture on my wall?
Our system is offset from the wall substrate so there is proper air-flow and no direct contact with the wall. When considering a vertical garden it is important to find a system that will not introduce mold or regular moisture to the wall surface.
How often should I water a Living-Walls?
We water our greenwalls 2-3 min every other day in summer and we adjust down seasonally as needed. Every location is unique and will require adjustments accordingly. Our system is engineered for sustainability and requires less water than most, and each tray is watered individually as opposed to needing water to cascade from above.
Why Air Quality Matters This Spring
Spring Cleaning? Add a Living Wall for Natural Air Purification
As spring unfolds, the urge to refresh and renew our spaces takes hold. It’s the season of open windows, decluttered corners, and that satisfying deep clean. But what if your spring refresh could go beyond tidying up and truly transform your indoor environment? Enter biophilic design—the art of bringing nature into our spaces to boost wellness and vitality. At Elevation Living Walls, we believe a living wall is the ultimate spring upgrade, offering not just beauty but powerful natural air purification to breathe new life into your home or office.
Why Air Quality Matters This Spring
Spring is synonymous with fresh air, but indoor spaces often trap pollutants like dust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and allergens. After months of sealed windows, your indoor air quality might need more than a quick vacuum. This is where living walls shine. These lush installations of indoor greenery act as natural air filters, absorbing toxins and releasing clean oxygen. By integrating sustainable design with nature, Elevation Living Walls creates environments that feel as rejuvenating as a walk through a spring forest.
The Science Behind Living Walls and Air Purification
Plants are nature’s air purifiers. Through photosynthesis, they absorb carbon dioxide and pollutants while releasing oxygen. Studies, like those from NASA, show that certain plants—such as peace lilies, spider plants, and pothos, often featured in our custom designs—can reduce VOCs by up to 87% in controlled settings. A living wall amplifies this effect, packing dozens of plants into a vertical garden that maximizes air-cleaning power. For spring, when allergies peak, this means fewer sneezes and a healthier indoor environment.
Beyond science, biophilic design taps into our innate connection to nature. A living wall doesn’t just clean the air; it creates a calming, revitalizing atmosphere. Imagine sipping your morning coffee beside a vibrant wall of greenery—spring’s renewal, right in your living room.
Practical Benefits of a Living Wall for Spring
Adding a living wall to your spring refresh offers benefits that go beyond aesthetics. Here’s why it’s a game-changer:
Enhanced Air Quality: As mentioned, plants filter out toxins, making your space a sanctuary of clean air. This is especially valuable in urban homes or offices where outdoor air quality can be poor.
Allergy Relief: Spring pollen can sneak indoors, but a living wall helps trap allergens, reducing symptoms for sensitive household members.
Low Maintenance, High Impact: At Elevation Living Walls, our custom installations come with integrated irrigation systems, making upkeep a breeze. Your spring cleaning won’t include endless plant care.
Mood Boost: Biophilic design is proven to reduce stress and increase productivity. A living wall brings the calming effect of nature indoors, perfect for refreshing your mindset this season.
Sustainable Design: Our walls are crafted with eco-friendly materials and water-efficient systems, aligning with the growing demand for sustainable design that’s kind to the planet.
