"Dan did a great job of going through everything very thoroughly with me and pointing out a plan of remedy for the aspects of my home that seemed most significant to least significant. I would recommend him in the future for anyone looking to get an understanding of their home energy performance."
"Jim Clay gave the most comprehensive quote for our insulation project. He suggested a couple of options which thought would help regulate the temperature in our home. He explained everything that ARC insulators would be doing to our home. He told us about rebates that would be credited to our bill because of a blower door pressure test and gas appliance combustion test. He presented a well-written quote. The technician for the tests and the technicians who did the insulation work showed up on time. They explained everything they were doing thoroughly. When the work was done, we did a thorough walk-thru before the techs left. We are satisfied with the work performed. We are satisfied with the money we paid. We would recommend ARC Insulation to anyone seeking recommendations."

"They were able to come the same day I called to schedule. I was visiting my daughter and while helping her do routine cleaning and maintenance around her house I discovered animal hair in the filter and on the compressor of the furnace, so I wanted the furnace blower and fan thoroughly cleaned asap. (This past winter I nearly blew out a furnace in a rental property because animal hair had built up and had jammed up the blower motor, blocking airflow, so for me this was a high priority job.) When he completed the service I was offered a routine maintenance program and the price for two service check and clean annually was to good to pass up. Plus they will call to remind me when maintenance services are due so I can't forget!!! That's great because of our busy schedules. I reccomend this company highly."

I would highly recommend them and I already did to few of my friends from work and they are also very satisfied with level of service, pricing and warranty."
