A&E is a certified Home Performance Contractor under the Building Performance Institute accreditation.  We have performed several energy audits and energy-efficient upgrades in and around the Pennington area.

    

A&E Construction's home energy audits determine where homeowners are using the most energy and where they are losing energy. 

Our energy audits typically take 3 to 4 hours to complete as we comprehensively test heating and cooling equipment, insulation levels, air sealing, windows, doors, appliances and lighting. A&E’s energy audits cost $225, but this audit fee is completely refunded if you choose A&E to complete the energy related improvements on your home.

Immediately following the audit, A&E will provide you with a 2 page summary report.  One week later, we'll provide you with a more comprehensive report including a proposal for your renovations as well as all energy efficient upgrades that qualify you for the financial incentives available with New Jersey's Home Performance with Energy Star solutions.
