Strategy #1 – Radiant Barrier

We start by installing Radiant Heat Barriers in your attic. The majority of unwanted heat in a home during the summer comes from the ceiling above as a result of energy heat transfer from the attic space. The radiant barrier eliminates up to 25% of the heat transfer alone.

Strategy #2 – Solar Attic Fan

Improve the comfort, efficiency, and longevity of your home by removing hot air and moisture from your attic

By removing excess heat in your attic, you can be more comfortable in your home, reduce energy usage, and save money. Additionally, you can protect your investment by removing moisture build-up year-round.

During the peak summer months, your attic’s temperature can rise to 160° or more. This heat build-up can then raise the temperature inside your home and increase the amount of electricity used by air conditioners and other cooling equipment.

Strategy #3 – Blown Attic Insulation

Retrofitting attic insulation is a simple cost effective way to dramatically improve your homes efficiency. Retrofitting is adding blown-in insulation to an existing attic. Blown-in insulation is the best way to increase an attic’s R-value.

An older home may be severely deficient and a new home my have been cheated by the builder.  Adding an additional layer of insulation to your homes attic is easy and effective way to increase your home’s efficiency.  We recommend adding a topper to the existing insulation to achieve the desired final R-Value.

Strategy #4 – Seal Windows & Doors
Air that leaks through your home’s envelope − the outer walls, windows, doors, and other openings − wastes a lot of energy and increases your utility costs. A well-sealed envelope, coupled with the right amount of insulation, can make a real difference on your utility bills.

Strategy #5 – Seal Exterior Leaks
Most homeowners assume there house is air tight and leaks from the outside are minimum. Take a walk around you home and look at your roof, eves, siding, and foundation. Upon closer inspection I am sure you will start to notice all the gaps into your home. Some common areas are the bathroom vents going through the roof, dryer vents, and heating / cooling duct work.

Strategy #6 – Upgrading Your Thermostat

Think about this for a minute, you probably upgraded your cell phone in the last 24 months, your computer is probably only a few years old, and most of us get a new car every 2-3 years. So, why haven’t you upgraded your thermostat? One of the most important controls of the entire house is most likely 8-10 years old and using outdated technology.

A new “smart thermostat” can help reduce energy cost, be more accurate, reliable, and have the ability to program with an app on your phone.
