The order of operations that saves the most

Efficiency work has a proper sequence: seal first, insulate second, upgrade equipment third, generate last. Sealing before insulating means the insulation actually performs; shrinking the load before buying equipment means smaller, cheaper systems. We follow the sequence even when it delays selling you the shiny thing.

Most homes see the biggest single win in the attic - it's unglamorous, it's a one-day job, and it shows up on the very next bill.

Common questions

What's the typical payback?

Air sealing and attic insulation commonly pay back in two to five years - faster than nearly anything else in the energy world. Your audit report shows the math per item.

Will this make the house stuffy?

Houses need controlled fresh air, not accidental drafts. We test after sealing and add ventilation only if the numbers call for it.

Do you handle the rebate paperwork?

Yes - current utility and government programs are baked into your quote and we file what can be filed for you.
