"Just to start off, I have been looking into Solar Energy for sometime but had not found any providers I felt confident with. After my initial conversation with SunPro representatives, I was put very much at ease as I found their knowledge of the current state of the industry well above the competition. They were very thorough in providing the specifications of the equipment and the install procedure. I was even able to go online and investigate the equipment and configuration used in the installation.Fast forward to the day of installation. They were in by 8:00 am and out by 2:00 pm. They were able to accommodate my schedule with no issues. The on-site guys were great. You cannot even see the panels from the street. A+ on curb appeal.They handled all the paperwork from the temp loan company, the utility company (less than two weeks to actual power conversion), to the tax form information. They answered every question and email I sent out within 24 hours.Add on instant access to daily power consumption and reports to help interpreting the utility bills. I don't think you can ask for much more.

"Outstanding! Mario and his workers did a fantastic job! They removed all insulation. They sanded off all wood and treated with a solution to kill any residual mold. They placed new insulation. They encapsulated the whole crawl space and placed a dehumidifier. I felt very confident that the job was "done right". The whole organization very professional."

"If you are looking for someone to install home theater--don't even bother looking anywhere else. Robert's prices were competitive, and he did an absolutely amazing job for us. He even worked overtime to make sure he was finished within the timeframe we agreed upon, and he made sure everything was working perfectly and took the time to walk us through everything. I cannot recommend him highly enough--super nice guy who is very skilled, knowledgable and works tirelessly to make sure you're happy. There's not much more you can ask for in a service provider.

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

Yes, mini-split or ductless AC systems add value to a home and do not devalue it. They are an attractive feature for potential buyers, especially in older homes without existing ductwork, as they provide a practical air conditioning solution without the significant expense and hassle of installing traditional ducts. Ductless systems also eliminate issues associated with conventional ductwork, such as noise and the potential for pests. Furthermore, homeowners value energy-efficient solutions, and mini-splits offer high efficiency for both heating and cooling, plus zoned temperature control. This leads to lower energy consumption and reduced electric bills, which is a major selling point.

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.

Common warning signs of an overloaded electrical panel or meter box include frequent circuit breaker tripping, flickering or dimming lights, scorch or burn marks, and a burning scent coming from the panel. A circuit breaker trips as a protective measure to prevent overheating and potential fires. If you observe any of these signs, turn off the affected circuit breaker and move some devices to a different circuit. If the problem persists after turning the breaker back on, you should contact a professional electrician to resolve the issue.

While some aspects of an appraisal, such as comparable properties nearby, are out of your control, there are several steps you can take to potentially increase your home's value. Make any necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser's visit, as they can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. Examples include renovating older areas, updating landscaping to boost curb appeal, and staging your home. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades, which may increase your home's value by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

Leaving vents open but closing doors in unused rooms will probably not save money on your energy bill. Closed doors prevent the natural flow of air throughout the home, which could reduce the efficiency of the overall HVAC system. They could also restrict airflow into and through the return vents, making the HVAC system less efficient.
