"We had serious issues with our second (half) story being consistently warmer than our first story, bringing with it very high electric bills. Peak Energy performed an energy audit that identified the issue and then sealed our attic (in the middle of a summer heat wave, no less) in 2 days. The team was professional and punctual and the discrepancy in our temperatures between the two floors went from >5 degrees to <2 degrees."

"Technician was running about 10 minutes behind schedule but called to let us know. He had to go to the hardware store because he did not have the correct outlet. We had to pay for the outlet which was not costly $10. Once he had all needed items he was able to get the job done quickly. He also answered some questions that we had about additional electrical concerns."

"They acted as a very professional company. I called to schedule an estimate, the gentleman showed up the next day. He explained in detail what they would do and was willing to negotiate the cost. The day before work their scheduler called the confirm I'd be available. They showed up on time, worked diligently, and cleaned up before they left."

"Called Alpine to set up appointment for an estimate; Mike arrived right on time along with the owner, David , very professional and they took the time to explain our options. We knew we needed to address the issues in the crawl space but weren't sure where to start. Mike recommended an extremely reasonable insulation company who was in and out in less than a day after Alpine did all the hard work prepping the crawl space. Mike uncovered a potential water problem in the farthest corner of the crawl space which we were able to address prior to installing the vapor barrier.

The Alpine team worked quickly but never missed a beat, sealing every vent and all the new ductwork. The installation went smoothly and represents a tremendous improvement over prior state. Our energy bill is now less than $200 a month on a regular basis and we've easily cut the monthly bill by over 30%!

Mike installed a new programmable, touch screen thermostat and took his time explaining all the various functions and setting it up for us (we haven't had to touch it since).

We're extremely pleased with our choice of contractors, we even signed up for Alpine's maintenance contract (and I'm not a huge believer in service contracts) but it makes sense to keep our HVAC system in good operating condition and a seasonal tune up should help protect our investment.

We would highly recommend Alpine to any of our friends and neighbors.

We had Rick perform all the electrical work needed to bring our home office project to life, which included installing several new outlets, relocating several outlets, and installing a splitter for high speed data.  Rick had to make several trips to our house in coordination with the carpentry work being conducted, and he was very good about scheduling the dates and times for those visits.  Rick always kept us informed as to when he would be coming by and what he needed to do.  Rick was very friendly, professional, and provided us with high quality work.  We will use Rick in the future for all of our electrical needs.

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

There are energy-efficient options when building a cottage. Select green building materials, high-performance insulation, and energy-efficient windows when designing your cottage. Options such as solar panels, efficient HVAC systems, and LED lighting can lower your utility bills and reduce your environmental impact. Many builders offer energy-efficient upgrades as part of the design process.

R-value measures an insulation material's thermal resistance, indicating its ability to resist heat transfer. A higher R-value signifies better insulation performance because the material is more effective at slowing heat flow. The R-value depends on the type, thickness, and density of the insulation material, such as fiberglass, foam, or cellulose. Each inch of insulation typically provides an R-value between 3 and 8. There is no single universal R-value; the optimal choice depends on your climate zone. Colder climates require a much higher R-value than warmer ones to maintain energy efficiency, keep the home warm in winter and cool in summer, and manage costs.

Typically, a local home energy auditor is responsible for performing energy audits. A home energy auditor will conduct one of three energy audits designed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) to determine the energy efficiency of your home. The auditor often provides analysis that can help guide changes and improvements to your home for better energy efficiency, giving recommendations as necessary.

Window AC units use a fair amount of electricity, but significantly less than central AC systems. Because they are more energy-efficient for cooling individual rooms or small spaces, their usage is comparatively low. On average, a window AC unit consumes between 500 and 1,400 watts, while a central AC system uses over 3,500 watts—meaning a window unit uses about one-third of the energy. This typically translates to a monthly running cost of $15 to $40, although this can vary depending on external factors.

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.
