Recommendation - CCI Sound Home Plan
by around theworld 13 Feb '23

13 Feb '23

Spreading the word about a great resource, Conservation Consultants, Inc. (CCI). I’m a new homeowner in Highland Park and a neighbor recommended this fantastic local non-profit that conducts energy assessments on homes and small businesses. My original goal was to have them identify how to address some drafty areas, and I was so surprised at how comprehensive the assessment was. All rooms were professionally measured and all major appliances were assessed…and thank goodness, because they identified a very dangerous clog with my hot water heater that was starting to back carbon monoxide into my home. It was not yet at emergency levels, but it was not picked up during my pre-sale home inspection. They did lead testing, used infrared cameras to check on insulation density and used a blower door test to suck the air out of the home to identify where the drafty areas were. The cost was very reasonable and I have a fantastic report, complete with photos that identified areas to address immediately and what can wait, and projections about how much I could save on my energy bills if I made the improvements. Some I could do myself, such as updating the door sweep and putting some caulk around the entry door. They also have a list of bonded professionals and they are great at helping you to put together an action plan. Wonderful resource for all of us with old homes. All of the contractors are great…Virginia McGrath was mine and she is fantastic…I’ve emailed and called her since my assessment to ask her opinion about a couple of items. House is already warmer…consider them https://getenergysmarter.org/sound-home-plan

Hello Neighbors, The HPCC hopes everyone is doing well during these challenging times. We encourage everyone to follow social distancing guidelines and limit trips out of the house as much as possible (except for enjoying the great outdoors at a safe distance from others). Fortunately we are a strong community with many resources! *HPCC website (hpccpgh.com <http://hpccpgh.com>), Covid 19 tab:* We are regularly updating the information and resources provided here. Topics include: - Updates on state/county/city services - Health resources - Social distancing & things to do - Resources for parents - Assistance & Community Resources - Ways to help in the community *Highland Park Helping Hands (Coronavirus Response) - Facebook page: * This page links neighbors in need with those who can help. People have already been sharing resources and providing much-needed moral support and community connection. Knowing not everyone is on Facebook, we encourage those who are to connect with neighbors who may not be and post for them. *The HPCC is planning some new - and safe! - community events: * Look for information soon on the upcoming *Spring Paper Egg Hunt *and *Sidewalk Chalk-a-Palooza*. Our traditional Spring and early Summer events, including community meetings, the Spring Fling, and the Yard Sale & Bryant Street Festival may be postponed or cancelled.

Our businesses and their employees are an important part of our community and we encourage people to continue to support them if they can. Thanks for being a part of the community!
