Sustainable apartments in San Diego, explained.

3743 is a sustainable building, but we don't expect anyone to take that on faith. Here's how the system works, what it saves you on your monthly bill, and how you actually see it in your Community App.

How it works

In-unit balcony solar. Battery storage. Direct to your home.

Each unit has a solar array mounted to its private balcony plus a small battery storage pack tucked behind the wall. Sunlight in, electricity directly into your home. No shared meter, no math to do, no app you have to babysit.

Per-unit, not shared

Your balcony's solar feeds your home, not a building-wide meter you share with sixty others.

Battery for off-sun hours

Stores the day's energy so it's available at night and on cloudy mornings.

Grid as backup

SDG&E is still connected. When your solar plus battery isn't enough, the grid quietly fills the gap.

The bill

In the Community App

Watch your own meter, in real time.

The Community App's energy tab shows live solar generation, battery state, and grid draw. You can see how much your solar covered today, this week, and this month. The carbon section translates that into pounds of CO₂ saved and adds it to your annual footprint summary, useful for B-Corp employees, anyone tracking personal sustainability goals, or anyone who likes a good dashboard.
