Our Energy Auditors are certified Structural Scientists, bringing decades of experience to the table. The panels we have installed produce enough electricity each day for an electric car to drive around the earth 1.25 times, or 31,142 Miles a day! An Energy Audit is a great first step to assess your home's energy consumption and determine which measures would best help to make your home more energy efficient.
Continuing, with an energy audit you also become eligible to receive substantial financial incentives from Efficiency Vermont for thermal improvements you make to your home. The Audit itself includes a thorough inspection of your home, appliances, heating systems and thermal envelope.

Since moving to Hemlock Ridge in White River Junction in 2017, my wife and I have had several projects with Building Energy under the guidance of Brent Mellen.. The first one was in 2018 with extensive insulation under the roof and the installation of a heat pump in the main living room. Both projects have worked out very well; the interactions with Brent and the other members of the Building Energy group have been outstanding. The explanations, care and support with all the details of the process have been most helpful.

Brent and his team performed a major weatherization project at my home in Thetford Center. I couldn't be happier with their work, their professionalism, and their thoughtful courtesy throughout the project. There was no inconvenience at all!!
I'm already seeing an incredible difference: the house has stayed surprisingly cool during the recent high temperatures. I'm looking forward to a much more comfortable and less costly winter! I highly recommend Building Energy.

We highly recommend Building Energy. We recently had an energy audit performed by Brent Mellen. He prepared a detailed report that provided multiple options and suggestions on improving the energy efficiency of our home. He personally walked through the report findings, providing easy to understand explanations and answering our questions.
We subsequently hired Building Energy to install foam insulation in the attic. Brent communicated very well, keeping us informed of work schedule and progress. Brent and his crew are professional, respectful, and friendly throughout. We are looking forward to

I highly recommend Building Energy. As the project manager, Brent Mellen did an outstanding job evaluating my needs and implementing an energy saving project in my home in the fall of 2019. He considered as many options as possible when evaluating opportunities that would keep my home warm and reduce monthly costs. Brent proved himself to be reliable, explained/communicated well, and was very resourceful. He was on time for every scheduled meeting and was onsite to meet service providers as they began their work. He stayed personally involved in every phase of the project making sure everyone understood

Building Energy made it easy every step of the way to go solar, a lifetime dream come true. They were great to work with from the initial evaluation, to guidance on financing, and registration with the Vermont power company, through a painless 2 day installation. Every member of the team we spoke with was helpful and competent. We highly recommend them - two thumbs way up! Jeff and Teresa Gerade
