Home Performance

You wouldn’t want a doctor to operate on you before you had a physical examination that proved you really needed an operation, right? It’s the same with contractors. You shouldn’t let one work on your house until they conduct a thorough examination. Brower Mechanical takes your whole home into account when planning for your home performance upgrades here in the Sacramento area, so you aren’t wasting your hard earned money on a service that won’t pay for itself over time. You may think your air conditioner is outdated and failing, but upgrading your insulation, sealing up your ductwork, and air sealing the rest of your home may turn your home from stuffy and sweaty to cool and comfortable!

Better Home Performance, Backed by Data

When you call Brower a highly trained comfort and energy specialist shows up armed with the latest home performance technology and diagnostic tools which may include a blower door, infrared camera and smoke wand. They’ll conduct a comprehensive home comfort and energy assessment called an energy audit. Your advisor then analyzes the data collected to determine your home’s optimum performance. They will provide options and costs for a customized solution as well as predicted energy savings and a guarantee.

Energy Audits: Quick and Easy, No Obligation

In most homes, this procedure takes about two hours and provides minimal disruption to your regular household routine. If you decide not to pursue the recommended improvements there are no obligations. If you do move forward with Brower we’ll apply the cost of the assessment to any improvements you make. Our visual energy audits are always free.

Although it may come as a surprise, indoor air is commonly two to five times more contaminated than outdoor air, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It is important to be mindful of indoor air quality, thus Brower Mechanicals closely follows HVAC industry best practices to ensure clean air.

Air leaks into your home through the exterior walls, windows, doors, and other openings. These leaks waste energy and increase your energy costs. A properly sealed home or business, combined with insulation can significantly lower your energy bills and your dependence on fossil fuels.

When Sacramento-area pool owners want to save energy, the pool pump is a great place to start, as they consume large amounts of power. Many homeowners are unaware how much energy their pool pumps waste. This is because many pumps circulate more water than is necessary much of the time, if they have only one or two speeds.

In the past, Northern California electric customers merely received a monthly bill and had very little data on their energy usage. Energy monitoring systems dramatically change this, providing a vital information about real-time home electricity usage.

Is your home letting energy slip through the cracks? Upgrading your home’s insulation is one of the best ways to save energy and increase your comfort.

duct insulation

This effective energy-efficiency product helps reduce cooling costs by reducing summer heat gains down. Radiant barriers reflect radiant heat, instead of absorbing heat. Applying a radiant barrier acts similarly to having your roof in the shade, when in fact it is in full sun.

Cool roofs have recently emerged as powerful tools to keep buildings cooler during our hot Sacramento summers. If the roof is cooler, your home or business will also stay cooler, resulting in lower energy bills and less strain on your cooling system.

These systems often use 90% less energy to operate than an air conditioning system, dramatically cutting Sacramento-­area cooling costs. Whole house fans enable you to quietly capture the benefit of cooler nighttime temperatures, for greater comfort and utility savings.

Brower Mechanical uses only windows that meet or exceed ENERGY STAR specifications and we insure that they are installed so you get the maximum benefit from them. Like all of the products that Brower installs, our windows are guaranteed. If you are interested in new windows, your Brower Mechanical advisor can help you.

Surprisingly, indoor air is commonly two to five times more contaminated than outdoor air, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Proper ventilation is an important strategy for removing contaminants, allergens, odors, and fumes from your home – protecting your family’s health.

There are a number of unique technologies on the market for connecting your home systems to the internet and gaining visibility – no matter where you are located – into energy usage and occupant comfort. At Brower Mechanical, we don't believe in using all the latest gadgets. We took our time with a number of ideas, and decided we were going to work with EcoBee and Nest connected home products.

Homeowners throughout the Sacramento area are concerned now more than ever about the health risks that may be lurking inside their homes. Poor indoor air quality in a house can result in a number of health issues, including respiratory difficulties, allergy-like symptoms, sneezing and coughing, and more.

Regular air filters and purifiers are good ways to start, but while these filters are good at trapping dust, pet dander, and other larger volatile organic compounds (VOCs), they don’t do much against germs like the common cold and viruses like the flu.

Thinking of adding a second dwelling onto your property? Whether they’re attached to existing homes or built as standalones, accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are becoming increasingly popular in the Sacramento area.

At Brower, we can help you lower energy costs and improve indoor comfort in your ADU with home performance services like insulation and weatherization, HVAC installation and repair including mini split installation and maintenance, window installation, solar, and more.

Recently, Brower did an energy audit of my home and upgraded it for insulation and ductwork. We've seen a substantial energy savings. I would hire them at any time and highly recommend them.
