I contacted EcoSmart Home Services (R. Pelton Builders, Inc.) directly to have the state-sponsored Home Energy Solutions audit done.  Three technicians arrived at the scheduled time and proceeded to complete the various aspects of the energy audit, including inspection of existing appliances, checking if any CFL bulbs needed to be installed, installing low flow shower heads and faucet aerators, wrapping the hot water heater pipe, blower door test, and duct airflow measurement.  As a result of the blower door test, air sealing was done in the attic and the basement ceiling in areas that could be easily reached.  Non-fire rated spray foam appeared to be used around the chimney in the attic, which will need to be redone.
The "kitchen table" wrap up did not include a review of the rebate offers.  I had let the technicians know that I intended to replace the central AC and possibly the gas furnace, but only the warm air furnace rebate form was filled out.  The rebate form for high efficiency central air conditioning was not filled out.  Furthermore, the comprehensive energy report did not include any saving analyses or recommendations for central cooling.  As a result of this, I will have to wait four months from the date of the audit to have the Energy Star w/ Home Performance program completed before I replace my central AC and furnace.  I will NOT be using EcoSmart Home Services for this.

We were referred to them through Solar World's website.  They came out and performed an energy audit to determine the efficiency of the house and provided us with multiple rebates to make it more efficient. We contracted with them to install solar panels.  They were a turnkey operation, so we had very little that we needed to do.  They were courteous, and professional. Steve worked hard to complete the job on time, and made sure that he did the right thing.  I give them my highest recommendation.

Sean responded promptly to my emails.  When he sent guys out to do the job of installing my new outdoor lighting, I didn't have the correct prep work done for him to complete the job.  He was very understanding and even spoke to my carpenter to coordinate the work. When the carpenter was finished with his part he sent his guys back out within a day of me contacting him.  Excellent service and great workmanship!  I would use him again and recommend them in a heartbeat!  It is rare to get this level of costomer service. Thanks Sean!

We were very pleased with our Eco-smart energy audit, performed by Ron and Jay.  They were here for about 2.5 hours and did a lot of work in that time.  They filled us in as they went so that we understood what they were doing, how energy efficient our house was, and what we could do to improve it.  The bulbs they replaced alone were worth the cash spent having them in!
