© 2009 Bright Ideas Home Energy Solutions

Bright Ideas designs homes focused on energy efficiency, longevity & sustainability.  By using proven design strategies, we can design your new home to save you money and increase your comfort with little to no additional design or build costs.

Comprehensive Home Energy Audit:

   Using the latest in high-tech diagnostic tools, including a blower door system and INFRARED THERMOGRAPHY, we determine how your home uses energy and where its inefficiencies are. Our investigation includes a thorough review of air leakage (the #1 cause of heat loss),insulation deficiencies, furnace/boiler efficiency, carbon monoxide, gas leaks, moisture issues and indoor air quality. The audit, however, is only the first step in making your home as efficient as it can be.  Next is the retrofit.

Energy Efficient Retrofitting:

  As an accredited building performance contractor, we make the improvements identified in the energy audit that bring your home up to current energy standards.  Since we are experts in building performance, you’ll see a real difference in your home’s performance and your money will not be wasted on extraneous repairs.

Government Incentives:

  As a partner with NYSERDA and the Home Performance with Energy Star programs, we can help you to secure cash rebates from 10-50% to help pay for the improvements to your home.  Furthermore, we offer low interest financing for home performance improvements.

Are you losing money right through your walls & windows? Bright Ideas offers a complete diagnostic home audit to identify & solve problems related to energy loss through air & thermal leakage.  For more information on our Comprehensive Home Assessment, click here.
