Village Energy has an excellent selection of high efficiency LED and CFL flood, pot, and chandelier lights - ideal for applications where spiral CFLs just won't do. Returns are in the range of 25-200%/yr, depending on how often a light is used - the more it is used the more you save.
Our line of Intellidyne fuel economizers will save you 10%-30% off your annual gas or oil heating bills, and even 10%-20% off the electricity your air conditioner uses - including high efficiency models! Returns on investment are in the range of 30-80%/yr.
We routinely test the air exchange rate in rooms - to check for losses, and to guarantee that there is enough fresh air coming in. But, we can also check the quality of your air, including test for mold, VOCs, radon and other substances that pollute your indoor environments.
Let the sun pre-heat fresh air entering your home or business, or use it to offset the cost of heating the water you use. Returns for solar hot water are in the range of 7-10%/yr.
Since 2006 Net Metering has been available in Ontario, allowing homeowners to effectively run their meters backwards as they generate their own power - eliminating the need to have stacks of deep cycle batteries. As of last November, homeowners can also become micro generators and sell renewable electricity through the Ontario Power Authority in 20yr contracts. Under this program grid connectivity for producers under 10kWis highly subsidized, and generators are paid .11c/kW for wind and .42c/kW for solar energy. Returns are in the 5-10% range for these systems.
Saving You Money Through Energy Upgrades
Let Village Energy help you enjoy the pleasures of your pool, without the daunting fuel costs. These installations let you better use the sun for energy, and pay for themselves in a couple of seasons: Returns are in the range of 40-60%/yr.
Great for hard-to-get places, or where you do not want to run a power line. Using adjustable motion detectors, our security lights get 2-3 hours of bright light a night.
Get the fresh air you want while minimizing heat loss. Installed on forced air furnaces, our Lifebreath HRVs pre-heat (or cool) fresh air by bringing it into close contact with out-going exhaust air. ERVs recover exhaust moisture, in addition to heat.
Back-up power systems turn on automatically when your household or business power is interrupted - keeping your furnaces or boilers running, as well as providing limited power to electrical outlets. Batteries can be charged off the electrical grid or through rnewable energy - solar or wind.
