"Your home efficiency experts!" We are a construction company providing a wide variety of services including but not limited to: Insulation, Weatherization, Air Sealing, Windows, Doors, Siding, Gutters & Roofing. We also offer an exclusive no-cost, no-obligation Home Energy Assessment once annually to Michigan homeowners residing in our service area.

"We ordered our large front window (including 2 side windows) back in November 1923. They said it would be 6-8 weeks and that was fine with us as Christmas was around the corner. Come January 2024 we hadn’t heard any updates so my husband called them to check the status. They said it hadn’t been delivered yet (built in Ohio). In February, hubby called again and they reported the side windows had but the center one couldn’t be found… . We agreed to go ahead with the side window install mid February. They came and did a nice job, but they had to complete the frame in with new Quarter Round (plain wood color)! They left. The next report : it was coming in end of that week . Didn’t happen. Finally end of February it arrived from warehouse. Today it got installed on March 4th!! In the meantime my husband said for all the mix up in dates and install dates wonder if they would accept a deal? They agreed to paint the new Quarter Round instead of a $50 discount. And we agreed on White to match the Framing on window. The guys who came to finish/complete last install were very curtious and cleaned up after everything was done . We are very pleased with the work they performed and really love the Triple Pane windows. Looking to lower our energy bill as the last windows had no insulation!"

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

Dehumidifiers typically use 300 to 700 watts of electricity per hour, whereas portable dehumidifiers use about 40 watts per hour. The exact amount of electricity your dehumidifier will generate depends on its capacity and energy efficiency. Generally, higher-capacity dehumidifiers generate more electricity than lower-capacity units, but they also usually have better energy efficiency over the long run.

A blower door test shouldn’t take more than an hour, and most can be completed in less than 30 minutes. Expect the test to take longer once you start searching for leaks with thermal imaging or want to include sealing such leaks in the time estimate. The test doesn’t take much time and can’t be rushed, but it will take longer in large homes or those with many air leaks.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Leaving lights on raises the electric bill, but not as much as having high-wattage light bulbs. The best way to save on electric costs is to swap your light bulbs to LED or CFL bulbs that use far fewer watts. You can also use smart lights and light switches to control usage via a smartphone or voice-controlled device.

No, it isn’t necessary to have energy-efficient windows. However, if you care about your energy bill and making your windows more energy efficient, fixing any heat, UV, or air transfer issues is an excellent way to lower your bills and keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
