Our Facility

​Environmentally Conscious

​Environmentally Conscious

Delmar Animal Hospital cares about the environment! We have been making continuous efforts to reduce our environmental impact.

This is not a new idea for us. In 1983, solar panels were installed on our roof to heat our water year round.

More recently we have:

  • Gone to paperless medical record keeping.
  • Using digital radiology which reduces usage of film with silver and chemicals to develop the film.
  • Recycled and reused non-essential office paper.
  • Updated electrical fixtures to more energy efficient models.
  • Updated furnace for energy efficiency.
  • Changed our electric energy source from predominately fossil fuel to 100% renewable energy (wind and water).
  • Substituted office paper for 30% recycled paper and plan on changing to 100% recycled when financially viable.
  • Recycled all cardboard boxes and aluminum cans.
  • And of course our lawns are naturally fertilized.
