When making energy efficiency upgrades to your home, consider working with an eco-conscious contractor.
More and more homeowners in the Bay Area are investing in energy efficiency upgrades to reduce their utility bills and carbon footprints. If you’re considering similar upgrades for your home, look for a company that not only knows how to do the work but also has an environmentally-friendly mindset. Not all contractors are ecologically minded in their methodology, which can compromise the very purpose of the project. That’s why it makes sense to hire a company that prioritizes Green building practices.
There are a couple of ways a contractor’s approach to your job can determine the eco-friendliness of the results. One is their choice of materials. “A lot of contractors still use fiberglass insulation, which isn’t very environmentally-friendly,” says Lior Zeevi, president of Insulation Guru Inc. dba HVAC Guru in San Jose. “A better option is Knauf EcoBatt insulation. It’s made of recyclable materials like wool and glass, so it’s much better for the environment.”
Mr. Zeevi says using non-Green products doesn’t just affect the environment—it can also affect the health of everyone who lives in the home. “Spray foam insulation is a popular product, but I don’t like using it because it brings chemicals inside. Styrofoam boards are a good compromise. Since they’re pre-sprayed and cut, most of the chemical vapors are already dissipated before they go into the home.”
Even seemingly minor contractor practices can impact a project’s eco-friendliness, such as the materials used for floor protection. “All the plastic used to cover furniture and floors should be recyclable and placed into specific bags after the job is done,” says Mr. Zeevi. “Even your contract can be Green if the company does everything digitally to avoid unnecessary paper waste.”
Insulation Guru Inc. dba HVAC Guru offers a variety of insulation, weatherization, and ventilation services to residential and commercial clients throughout Santa Clara County and the Mid-Peninsula. In addition to installing spray foam insulation, radiant barriers and HVAC systems that improve the energy efficiency of its customers’ buildings, the family-owned and operated company is qualified to perform specialized work like asbestos removal and attic cleaning.
President Lior Zeevi says HVAC Guru’s ability to provide its customers with immediate results has been a key factor in its success. “Most people notice a difference as soon as we’re done, and when they get their energy bills the following month, they’re even more impressed. It makes us feel good when a client calls to tell us how happy they are with our service.”
HVAC Guru takes a meticulous approach to quality control on each project, which Mr. Zeevi says is crucial for achieving the best possible results. “We go the extra mile to do an extremely good job, even if it’s work that will never be seen, like in an attic or between the walls. Everyone here knows how important it is to consistently meet high performance standards.”
