New York Energy $mart

Home Performance with ENERGY STAR, a national program from the U.S. EPA and U.S. DOE, offers a comprehensive, whole-house approach to improving energy efficiency and comfort at home, while helping to protect the environment.

This approach leads to better results because you're not just applying bandages to items but looking at the whole and how various parts interact. We are involved with the NYSERDA sponsored HPwES program and teh Pennsylvania program which has just begun under the direction of PA Home Energy and WPSEF.

Quality Assurance

To participate in these programs we must maintain high standards for quality by attending specialized training for contractors and conducting quality assurance inspections to verify that Home Performance with ENERGY STAR projects get done right.

Having work performed through these programs can help you cost-effectively improve your home's energy efficiency. We evaluate your home using state-of-the-art equipment and recommend comprehensive improvements that will yield the best results. We can also help you take advantage of Federal tax credits for energy efficiency improvements.
