Did you know that there are a number of energy efficiency incentives available in our state -- whether through utilities, municipalities or state agencies? Buying
your home was one of the largest investments you have made. Improving the "envelope" or "shell" of your home by adding air sealing and insulation is often the most cost-effective way to make your home more efficient and comfortable. Through the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program, and Inspect It Right Home Inspections homeowners receive a comprehensive, whole house energy assessment and recommendations on energy-saving improvements, from an independent consultant, that are smart for you and your family.
