Home Energy Saver Testimonials
- This site is fantastic! I just found this site through my local energy company. The detail and complexity of calculations is amazingly helpful. I will undoubtably come back again, and I will be linking to this site from our "green architecture" site on our company intranet. Clearly one of the best uses of my tax dollars. Thanks LBL!

- Just discovered your website today--it's terrific! Thanks for the invaluable help you have given me in trying to improve energy costs for a rental property in New Orleans--I pay the utilities. The Home Energy Saver is great. The estimated energy costs were within $20 of what I paid over the past year.

- This is an extremely valuable service you perform with your energy audit and summary as well as the advice provided. It is very timely for us as we are currently planning a new home. We now know which appliances we would not want to move but replace, saving also the moving costs as well. By your virtual model, we anticipate electric bill about 1/3rd of present and will receive rebates from TU Electric for their criteria and surpassing it for energy savings.
