Success Story
'A big thank you to Clive from Low Energy Home. The Enhanced Residential Efficiency Scorecard Assessment was very informative and helped us understand the energy efficiency of our home. Clive provided a series of short term and long-term recommendations, all very well-tailored to our goals. The assessor report included detailed information on how to implement those recommendations, with links to potential vendors. We now feel confident about what to focus our attention on and how to implement it! We highly recommend Low Energy Home's services.' (Lorene and Jason, Adelaide)
