Description of Work: They sealed multiple canned ceiling lights and other structures in the attic and blew in insulation in the entire attic. Mike and his crew were professional, on time, polite and knowledgeable. They completed the job in a timely manner, and Mike even fixed a loose ceiling can in my kitchen. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to make his/her home more energy efficient. I would definitely hire them again but with the terrific job they did I probably will not need to!

Description of Work: I originally phoned this vendor to get more information regarding the Attic Fan promotion that they had advertised. ($499.00 for Solar Attic Fan and installation.) I wanted to know the manufacturer's name and model # of the product that they were using for this promotion in order to research the quality of the product that they were planning to use. The lady I spoke to stated that she wasn't allowed to give out that information and that she would have her local office that serviced my area contact me. I was never contacted. Apparently they did not want my business!

Response from EnergySmith Home Performance
Mr [Member Name Removed], After our initial response, we realized that you are commenting on something from 7 months ago. THE FACTS The Asheville office has never run a $499 special for an attic fan. The Simpsonville office ran their very first Angie's Big deal in October according to our Angie's records.. I am personally writing this letter to you as the Asheville office manager. Instead of enjoying the first vacation I've had in 5 years I'm worrying about responding to an individual, whom we've never met, that has given us an F over something that we understand happened over 7 months ago and that has never been brought to our attention until now. EnergySmith Home Performance takes EVERY comment and review very seriously. We take pride in our work and our relationships with our customers. That's why we have a 99% A rating, Super Achiever Awards and Honor Roll. We have tried for almost 2 weeks to resolve this matter with Angie's List. Why did you call the Asheville office if you were responding to a big deal from another office and not call the phone number listed? Sometimes we do mistakenly get a phone call at the Asheville branch for our other locations when folks are searching the internet. My procedure is to immediately either call that office, text, email the information to them or simply give the customer the proper phone number. If there was a specific question I would have picked up the phone and relayed the question with the contact information. Neither office has a record of your phone call and to be given an F seven (7) months later is confusing. I know that folks are human and if I made a call to a business and didn't get a return call, I would pick up the phone and call again. I certainly wouldn't even consider giving anyone such a horrible grade. Why in the world didn't you just pick up the phone and make a 2nd call or use the Angie's message center and inquire directly to the Simpsonville office? That office started their 1st big deal in October, so we're still confused how you responded to something that according to our Angie's records wasn't even in existence the first of September. I would NEVER tell a customer that we can't give out that information. If I don't know. I would just tell you "I don't know but I'll find out for you." Considering we use multiple fan manufacturers it's impossible to tell you which fan would be used. The roof type determines the particular manufacturer brand that we choose for a home. Unlike some companies that use one particular brand, having multiple brands should explain why we could not answer your question. If you are truly a customer who is so very unhappy, I wish you would have reached out to us and we would have resolved the situation 7 months ago and I could be enjoying my vacation. It is very difficult to address a concern that is seven (7) months old and that we knew nothing about. Regardless, both myself and the Simpsonville office manager go above and beyond to make sure our customers are taken care of. We have poured blood, sweat and tears into this company and take very seriously any comments that reflect personally on us and on the company. Last I heard the only person I know that is perfect is Jesus. And although we do strive for perfection, unfortunately there's always a chance that perfection will not be reached. Not only does your review effect our company it also effects our crews and their families. If I made a mistake I sincerely apologize for that, and if the Simpsonville office didn't call you back I'm sorry for that as well, but we are human beings. I will be the first to admit if I make a mistake but we do not have a record of your one and only call. I would think if you were a business owner and had the same accusations you would not appreciate such a severely critical review over something such as not being able to answer your question about the fan manufacturer name (without seeing your home) and the fact that maybe somewhere in the mass amount of work that we complete in full every month you got lost in the shuffle. If that is the case do you honestly think that deserves an F? I hope whatever your business is that you never make a mistake. Everyone deserves a 2nd chance. We're even willing to come look at your home to determine what could help you to achieve a more energy efficient home, even after you have treated us so unfairly. I would hope that you reconsider your grading system and change it to a more fair grade.

Sometime it best to recommend nothing when nothing is what the home needs. We always come to a home hoping to help upgrade and improve the comfort and energy cost of a home. Some home are very well insulated and the cost of any upgrade simply can't be justified. We enjoyed meeting you and are very please to here you were satisfied with our visit. All the best.

Description of Work: I was interested in the Solar Attic Fan deal as advertised on Angie's list by this company, but was unsure of whether it was the correct type for my roof. I called the company to enquire and Joe came out to my house to make sure for me. While he was here we discussed other ways to make my home more energy efficient and after discussing options with him, I decided that we would install the fan along with having the attic sealed & the insulation upgrading. |The team that came out were courteous and did a great job. I cannot wait to see how much better my home feels during the coming winter months as the insulation does it's job.

Mr [member name removed] I'm so confused by your review. First you were not present for the install, so we had no input as to what you might want. The fan was installed as agreed and your wife who was present seemed very pleased with the work. You have never expressed any thing to us to lead us to believe you were anything but pleased. Could you please explain what these D + C ratings are all about? I think if you look at your standard review we go out of our way to be sure people are happy. If You choose not to be present for a project you requested I don't know how you can blame us for doing what we know is best without your input. You were not there to give an opnion on what you thought should be done. If you had been present at the set install time I truly don't think I'd be looking at such a disappointing grade.

Description of Work: I showed him my leaking ceiling. He determined that I had an insulation problem and quoted me a price to repair. We agreed to a price and time for them to do the work. They showed up on time, performed the work professionally and cleaned up after themselves. I highly recommend them.

Since the sealing and insulation upgrade, my second floor is much more comfortable. The bedrooms are within one degree of the setting on the thermostat in the hallway. They used to be three degrees cooler. I no longer have to supplement with an electric radiator to maintain comfort. The heat pump no longer has to run non-stop throughout each night. As an experiment, I turned off the heat on my second floor for 3 hours today, while the outside temperature was 27. The inside temperature remained at 68 which tells me my first floor heat is no longer simply escaping to the attic. I have no doubt that my monthly savings in utility bills will rapidly payback the cost of the upgrade. Simply turning off the supplemental 1500W radiator will result in great savings. Also my heat pump is not running as much, which should lengthen its life expectancy, creating additional benefits.
Description of Work: I live in a ten-year-old, two- story home. Since constructing the home, I presumed the energy efficiency of a modern home, with R30 insulation in the attic, must be up to par. The home has a heat pump for each floor, and the first floor has a gas furnace as well. The HVAC installer assured me that the heat from the first floor gas furnace would assist in keeping the second floor warm, so the second floor heat pump alone would be adequate. Unfortunately, the second floor has always been chilly and drafty, and on cold nights, has required the use of an electric radiator as supplemental heat. I figured running a 1500 watt heater was preferable to running 10,000 watt heat strips on “emergency heat,” but I was never content with either option. I contacted Mike Fowler of EnergySmith for advice. I was impressed when he showed up 15 minutes early for our appointment to assess my situation. He thoroughly inspected my attic, and explained to me that my main problem wasn’t insulation, but rather too many air leaks throughout my attic. Line sets to the attic, lights recessed into the attic, and vent pipes that exit my home via the attic, had not been properly sealed off by the builder. Mike explained how he would correct the problems and gave me a detailed quote which was very reasonable. Although Mike stated that my existing insulation was good, I opted to have additional insulation blown in, to increase my R factor from 30 to 45. The installer arrived on time to complete the work. He was very courteous and professional. He went above and beyond the terms of the contract. He covered my personal belongings in the attic with plastic to keep them free of insulation overspray, and prior to his departure he swept my living space, and confirmed that I was happy with his work.
