Best energy efficiency auditors near Bound Brook, NJ

"I was very pleased with the audit which helped to identify needed fixes. As a result, last winter was a much more pleasant experience at home and we used less propane"

"Ira was cordial and professional. He has practical experience and knowledge of residential energy audits. He was able to provide useful suggestions but not definitive solutions to issues. That may have been due to inaccessible interior walls. I am frustrated that a full written report that had been promised still has not been produced six weeks later."

"My agent was very serious throughout the process. They were patient and explained the process thoroughly before they started. I was kept informed and felt reassured that any questions I might have could be resolved by contacting them."

"I hired Eco Green because I know people that have used them with no complaints. They were on the ball with everything. Fast, informative and ready to help. I had a hose break free from my washer and it flooded my office with 2 inches of water, the unit below us and the 3 floors below them. Within hours their team was in my unit, the water was up, the dehumidifier and industrial fans were running. Hours later, things were dry to the touch. By the next day, the floors didn't squish. We have no mold, no funny odors and they were able to save my wood floors by acting so quickly. If you value massive experience and the right tools for the job, Eco Green is your last call.

"On the confirmed date, Joey arrived with two of his workers. I couldn't believe that he was actually here!. In my experience, most owners send the workers to perform the job - not Joey. Joey, was with his workers explaining what needed to be done and supervising their work. Joey is a great leader who has surrounded himself with the best! His workers are very knowledgeable, they take pride in their work and are very careful. The work took about three hours and I have to say that I feel such a difference in my house already. The hot days we've had do not feel anywhere near as hot as they felt prior to the insulation. My house feels cool and nice. I can't wait for the winter to feel the real difference! I am very thankful to Joey and his team. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs insulation, energy conservation and advise on saving money on utilities!"

"Person who visited was very polite and noted that what I purchased was likely not something that would meet my expectations.  I wanted an energy audit, how my systems could be improved in home, lighting, heating, insulation and air conditioners.  What I got was a list of things they could work on and the price to do that work.  The work list in no way was considered an energy audit, rather it was a punch list of things I could do based on their visual inspection.  I did not have a comparison of work and benefit/savings calculation.  There was no checklist of inefficiencies and how that translated into energy losses. For example, multiple hi hat lights in house, they spoke about boxing and insulating a few, less than 10, when I have almost 90 in house.  Overall I was disappointed, the tech who came said the offering needed to be better presented prior to start of work."

We purchased our home in August 2012 and moved in October 2012.  Although we had the A/C tested for functionality a few times, we did not have a through inspection done which as you will see was a mistake.



When Weatherbusters came out to do the pre season maintenance for our contract, they found the air handler to be moldy.  Although the units were functional, they strongly advised not to run it for health reasons.  As the units were from

 1989, we had intended to replace them but were hoping to get another year out of them.



We received a quote from Weatherbusters for the complete replacement of the air handler and compressor.



As the quote was $14K we were very surprised.  In order to get a better understanding of the basis of the quote, we asked for a break down with the hopes of value engineering a solution as my previous review stated, they did a great job on the furnace maintenance.



My girlfriend asked Mike Sadowski if we could receive a breakdown, and he flat out refused.  We found that to be bothersome and my girlfriend was less than pleased (which makes it more difficult to go further...)



I proceeded to get other quotes and was surprised to find that although Weatherbusters was out of line with the others, the cost was still high for my job.



In the process, I became very educated on equipment and A/C needs etc.  In the end I went with another provider (which also receives high ratings from Angie List users)) for about $10K.



The comments I got was that was that I bought a Rheem and they aren't as good as York, Trane or Carrier but the one being replaced was a 25 year old Rheem/Rudd so I was happy with my choice.  Had I needed a Seer of 25, or wanted to go with a variable speed handler there might have been validitiy with their comments.



In the end, I feel that Weather busters was overpriced for me. Since the equipment doesn't vary that much in price, the real difference must be labor.  Hopefully this is a result of the people we have met from Weather busters being very well paid.

"Everything was great.  They are impeccably clean, professional, and knowledgeable.  If anyone is considering major electrical work, they should consider Mister Sparky."

"I had some troubles with my furnace for the past two year. Tried to call many mechanics, but I didn’t work out. Than I called to Ed with Platinum Heating. Ed showed up on time as we discussed. Everything was perfect, he did a great job. Rated 5 starts cz everything was clean, quick and insanely professional. I would recommend Platinum Heating and Cooling for everybody. Thanks so much!"

"The work was completed in a timely fashion.  Everything went well."
