Who We Serve
Performance Systems helps home and business owners establish and
maintain environmentally responsible, high performance buildings and
energy systems that are healthy, comfortable, durable, and energy efficient.
Performance Systems provides a wide range of installation services to
single family residential, multifamily, and commercial buildings.
Performance Systems provides a wide range of installation services including
- Heating and Cooling
- Renewable Energy Systems
- Ventilation and Indoor Air Improvements
- Insulation and Windows
- Air Sealing
- Domestic Hot water and Appliances
Performance Systems performs a whole building systems inspection before
we make an installation proposal to our customers. This allows us to
understand the interaction of the various systems in the building. We also
calculate out the energy savings
potential from potential improvements.
After we complete the inspection, we make specific recommendations and
give you a proposal for work that will improve performance in a variety of
ways including energy, comfort, health and safety, and building durability.
If you understand what is and what isn't working about your building, you
can make better decisions about how to improve it. We also use the same
testing techniques to make sure that we have done the work correctly.
This performance testing approach to contracting is supported very
generously by New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA)
with a range of incentives for homes and businesses. You can get up to
$5000 dollars towards your installations costs
if you qualify based on income and at least 10% or a
low interest loan if you don't meet the income guidelines. New York
State also supports renewable energy with a range of incentives.
Environmental Benefits

The whole building, performance testing approach to improving facilities
benefits the environment as well as your building, and pocket book. On
average, each house we treat contributes as much to global warming
reduction as 3 full grown trees each year. We also provide environmental benefits
and energy savings from renewable energy
systems.
