Our Home Energy Performance team provides a holistic approach to energy conservation.
Our inspectors look at the home as a complete system. (electrical usage, temperature loss, fuel efficiency) eliminating the need to call several different contractors all interested in selling their products.
Our inspectors use a four step approach developed by the Building Performance Institue (BPI), New York State Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA), and the U.S. EPA's Energy Star Program:
1. Initial Consultation - no charge; assess the likelihood of saving energy dollars.
2. Complete Analysis - sophisticated instruments used to measure energy consumption.
3. "Workscope"- estimate of energy savings presented to you.
4. Financing asssistance - help you obtain government grants and low interest loans that are available if BPI certified contractors are used and Energy Star equipment installed.
*After improvements are made, we come back and retest to make sure everything is operating at peak efficiency and that the anticipated energy savings are being realized.
