Before & After Photos

Hot, hot, hot! That's the only way to describe the second floor in this house during the summer. The homeowner had already spent money with another contractor to improve the hot second floor with new heating and air conditioning. But it didn't work! Her attic air sealing and insulation were atrocious. Lots of hot attic air was infiltrating into the second floor. And the heat from the attic was going right thru her tiny amount of insulation.

Alber Service Company removed the old insulation, air sealed all wall tops and penetrations from ducts, wires, plumbing, and recessed lights. We then built an insulated storage deck so she could bring efficiency and order to her off season Christmas storage. Finally, we blew 18-in of R-60 cellulose insulation onto her attic. You can see the retention dams on the storage deck that hold all that insulation back.

And guess what? Her second floor is now the same temperature as her first floor! It's not magic. it's science. And Alber Service Company has the perfect combination of highly trained Certified Energy Consultants to diagnose your problems and highly trained Field Teams to properly implement the measures prescribed.

This homeowner wanted to get rid of his old oil-fired boiler. It was loud, sooty, and made the basement very hot because it was so poorly insulated and ran very hot. Since his office is in the basement, he wanted a system that was very quiet and very clean. After considering several options, the client selected a Bradford-White Brute Combi Boiler. This system heats both his house (he uses copper fin-tube baseboard) as well as his domestic hot water. It is 95% efficient and uses natural gas for heat which is much less expensive than heating oil. The system also melts the snow off his front steps and walkway!

WOW! What a difference!

The old air conditioner in this house had provided 22-years of service because Alber Service Company had been faithfully maintaining it. But this summer the condensate pan under the indoor cooling coil rotted out and water flooded the unfinished basement. Rather than replace the old indoor coil (it used the banned R-22 Freon) the homeowner elected to upgrade the system and take advantage of utility rebates, 0% financing, and tax credits.

We installed an American Standard (Trane) 17 SEER2 multi-speed air conditioner. It changes the amount of cooling provided based on the outdoor temperature. When it is mild outside, it runs at partial cooling capacity. This results in long "ON" cycles that provide dramatically better humidity control. It's a great system that comes with a 12-year warranty on the compressor and 10-years on all other parts and labor. It is also super quiet when operating. Smart choice!

After one of our BPI Certified Energy Experts performed an Energy Audit on this home in West Deptford NJ, it was evident to the home owners how they could achieve their goals of reducing fuel consumption and lowering the electric bill.

The home owners chose to replace their old furnace and air conditioner with a new high efficiency unit from Bryant. 

Air sealing and insulating the attic and garage with expanding polyurethane foam and then blowing in trusoft cellulose insulation was done to make a room above the garage more comfortable.

The energy saving improvements that we made to this home increased the energy efficiency by 21% and it qualified for $3,000 in Rebates from the state of NJ and 0% Financing.
