    For others, it may be to just take advantage of some products, such as spray foam insulation or a geo-thermal heating and air conditioning system to help improve the energy efficiency of their home.

    The basic areas that you need to think about, and we can help you with, are:

    • Situating the home properly to take advantage of slope, sunlight and tree shade
