We searched for a company we could trust as our partner for home energy retrofits, and found one in Recurve, formerly Sustainable Spaces, a firm in SF with local roots. We’re clearly huge fans of solar, but it’s just one piece of the sustainability puzzle. Energy efficiency retrofits can help you piece together the rest.

Why Care About Home Energy Efficiency?

It saves you money each month and makes your home healthier and more comfortable. Energy bills too high? Rooms too hot or cold? Have allergies, mold, or odors? Or children with asthma? A home energy audit can help solve these problems and more.

It’s shocking: nearly 40% of the energy American homes consume is wasted. (Homes also account for 21% of all carbon emissions in the US.) You can find poor insulation, leaky ducts, or inefficient household appliances through a home energy retrofit. Saving up to 40% on energy costs by eliminating waste makes a big difference in your budget and our emissions.

Plus, indoor air quality is often 3 – 5 times worse than outdoor air. As hot air leaks out, it draws cooler air from where it’s readily available: beneath your floors in your crawlspace. If you’ve spent any time down there, you know it’s not air you want to breathe in your living room.  Recurve tests air quality and helps make sure the air your family is breathing inside your home is clean and healthy.
