      Testimonials

      Home owner (or occupant) Testimony
      The number one thing we like best about our home is the utility savings. We came from a 3,000-square-foot colonial that was costing us over $4,000 a year just in oil, plus an electric bill that was about what we pay now for everything. We haven’t had to set the thermostat above 68, even on the coldest days. With our former home we would have had the thermostats at 72 just to get the temperature to 67.
