Efficient Home Solutions

We had Efficient Home Solutions out to look at the interior and exterior units and the insulation on a new house we just purchased. It was totally a pleasant experience! From calling into the office to schedule the visit to the actual on-​site walkthrough with the owner, David, it was a completely seamless process. When Efficient Home Solutions arrived, we did a quick tour of the house and pointed out a couple of concerns (large windows, an old thermostat, etc.) before we began in the attic at the interior unit. We looked together at everything, and it was very educational! We learned about the efficiency of our house, quick fixes for the short run, and what we may need to look at over time.
We learned the difference in high efficiency units from a few years ago to today, and we got advice on which smart thermostat we should buy for our new house. What stood out most of all is that when we were discussing the work that we should have done, there were no over-​the-​top sales pitches. We received honest advice about how and when we should make our home more efficient. The priority wasn’t even on the most expensive-​to-​fix things. I found my experience with David and Efficient Home Solutions to be easy, painless, and actually a fun time learning about our recent purchase. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone who is looking for a repair or to ensure they are controlling the efficiency of their homes!

I gotta say I was extremely happy to see that there are still some family oriented businesses out there. David and his team were completely honest and shot me straight on what I needed and didn’t need, and broke it all down for me. And it was exactly what I was quoted for what I chose to have done. Energy bill is almost half now! Awesome job guys!

I have been very happy with working with these guys. I called them out earlier in the summer when the system was operating at low efficiency. They took a look, gathered enough information to make a good diagnosis without doing tests that they’d have to charge me for, and made a recommendation. They weren’t necessarily the cheapest bid (though everyone bids different products so you can never have an apples-​to-​apples comparison), but I felt that it was the best bid, based on the professionalism of the staff and the apparent quality of the system they suggested. There was no sales pressure at the time, just a recommendation to consider.
Fast forward two months, and a different part of the system unexpectedly fails. They came back out promptly, took a look, and gave the honest diagnosis — the part is fixable, but it’d be $ 1200 and with a 12-​year old system it just didn’t seem like a logical step. They offered me a good price on the same system they had recommended before and we scheduled for the very next day.
The install crew was also very professional and good. They worked quickly and were easy to work with, even being willing to let me go to work with the house locked up and give me a call when they were ready to come in and do the thermostat and testing (our attic access is in the garage). Efficient Home Solutions has a philosophy of replacing new virtually everything involved in the system, simply because it’s better to replace it now, even if it’s a few hundred extra dollars, than to run into continual challenges as little components fail every few years. They gave me good recommendations, even on things that fall outside their business model, and even on things that they could make money doing for me but that I could do for cheaper elsewhere.
They offered me a wealth of financing options, and were honest that there’s no such thing as zero interest financing, except that they as a company would be willing to eat the interest themselves if I paid a certain amount down, which we did. The financing process was quick and easy and will be very convenient for me.
I recommend these guys for a quality job!

Moved. Had them out to the new place, and they STILL are excellent. They return phone calls, arrive on time, don’t overcharge or talk you into more than you need. I am so confident in them, that I went ahead signed up for a plan. Now they’ll come out twice a year to care for the heating and air. It’s great when you find good people and just trust them to take care of things. Aaahhhhh.

These folks were tremedous. I called for an appointment and they came over, diagnosed the issue, and were working to fix it that afternoon. The difference is 180 degrees. I now have a clean, quiet, comfortable system with every part of the facility evenly cooled.
The people were so courteous and professional. I even received a personal follow up a couple days later to make sure everything was working perfectly, using a laser thermometer.
I could not be happier!

David Rivera, the owner of Efficient Home Solutions (EHS), has given several lectures to my organization. Many of our members have used his services. The reply heard most is «Thank You, you have saved my family so much money»! I too have used David’s suggestions and have received instant results on saving from our energy bill. I will be using EHS’s services this spring to make sure my HVAC equipment is working to code for the summer season. I highly recommend Efficient Home Solutions as your HVAC vendor.

These people really know what they are doing. Their work is top notch and their prices are fair. David even helped me identify a potential source of carbon monoxide in my water heater. He didn’t have to do that. These are good folks!

My husband and I have nothing but great things to say about this company.
It started with the free energy audit where the owner came out and gave us all this quick DIY stuff that we could implement to help save energy costs.
Then, we needed to replace our attic insulation as it was over 30 years old, and the team was quick, professional, cleaned up after themselves, and finished ahead of schedule! The pricing was also as good as it gets. We shopped it around and no one could beat their quote. Also, we are saving $ on our electric bill each month with the new insulation, so it won’t take long to break even. Well worth the investment.
We are so glad we went with them, and would highly recommend them to anyone.

The unit that had been registered 5 different times went bad and had to be replaced. Supposedly it was a brand new unit? Rheem paid $ 300 and provided the new part. I wonder if the unit was used/​problematic and was purchased on the cheap. How come it was registered 5 different times to 5 different people?
The new HVAC contractor fixed another installation problem. EHS forgot to put the drip pan in under the coils and water leaked into my daughters room!
Worse experience ever! Would not recommend!

Friendly, quick but they were $ 200 over the price for a basic part. ($ 335 with them, $ 135 with the other company). In addition they tried to sell us a part we didn’t need. We have an AC unit that is about 6 years old. The part they tried to sell us was for an older unit that needed help.

Can’t review their work yet, but we signed up for their free energy audit and were most impressed. Wolfgang came out and walked us through our newly purchased home. He was extremely courteous and very knowledgeable as he pointed out any problem areas to focus on to make our home more efficient and comfortable this summer. No pressure, just information. We learned a lot that day and when we are ready to proceed with any insulation or ventilation we will definitely be giving them a call back.

Very impressed by their free home energy survey. Service rep gave us clear options and prices and did not pressure us at all. Installation crew came on time and was very concerned about keeping the house clean. Work was done efficiently and to our satisfaction. Couldn’t ask for more.
