Residential Services

Bills too high? Not sure where to start with making changes? We can help.

Our clients can almost always reduce their bills by 20% with no-cost or low-cost measures - which means, our audits pay for themselves in as little as 3 months.

Our deliverable includes a prioritized list of recommendations based on payback, CO2 reduction, and comfort improvement.

In the SoCal marketplace, we usually focus on reducing your electrical bill. We can take it a step further, and include gas and water.

Energy analysis for new home construction and major remodels is one of our core services that we are particularly proud of. We factor in the efficiency of the building envelope & its systems, the climate, the cost of electricity, and even your life style choices, to help you with:

1. Mechanical system sizing & selection
2. Heating & cooling cost estimation
3. Total annual electricity cost estimation
4. Solar & geothermal system sizing
5. Pool heating & filtration calculations
6. Net-zero energy calculations
7. Title 24 Energy Efficiency Code Compliance

Looking for a formal score? As an added service, we can establish a HERS index for your home. This will tell you exactly how efficient your envelope is and how well your mechanical systems perform with respect to RESNET's reference home.

This rating is required for certain financial incentives.

Looking for a formal BPI audit as a requirement for participation in an incentive program such as Energy Upgrade California or Home Star?

Look no further. Our staff was trained by the BPI procter for field exams in San Diego, so you can be assured we learned from the best.

Too many incentive and rebate programs? New construction or major upgrades - residential or commercial - are involved as it is. Add the complexities of the current market, and you may easily find yourself overwhelmed.

Let us handle it. CAHP calculations, NSHP verification, section 179(d) energy modeling, etc... as long as you qualify, we'll get you the money.

Pools and Spas are some of the biggest energy consumers in many buildings. This also means, they provide the biggest opportunity for savings.

Our energy and water use calculations can pinpoint where you are spending too much, what to do about it, and what you should leave alone so as not to sacrifice comfort and water quality.

Thinking of taking your home to the next level? Our staff has project experience with LEED and Build It Green certification, and we can arrange for your new home to become Energy Star certified as well. There are even incentives available to make all this more affordable. We will gladly take your project all the way to certification, or just work on those tricky credits that your builder can't figure out.

If you are an architect or builder, we can help you make the case for certification to your clients - sometimes an independent, third-party opinion is all it takes.
