ACI Convention 2010



BrightHome is in Austin, TX this week for the Affordable Comfort Institute Convention - Home Energy Retro Fit Summit.

The ACI Home Performance Conference creates a forum where forward-thinking people meet to explore building science know-how and high growth career prospects. This year, our program will address both hot and cold climate issues, with a focus on energy retrofit for whole house solutions.

BrightHome fully supports the whole house approach and looks forward to learning more about this concept and meeting the people in the industry who are developing new ideas and techniques to make home comfort more affordable.

Efficient Heating & Cooling



This week we talked Ed Schwartz about efficient heating & cooling for the home. As Summer approaches and homeowners start turning on their cooling systems, energy gets wasted through cracks in sealing and ducts throughout the home. Sealing and insulating ducts can improve the efficiency of your heating and cooling system by as much as 20 percent — and sometimes much more.

Also, something you can do RIGHT NOW is check your filter every month, especially during the summer. If the filter looks dirty after a month, change it. Dirty filters slow down air flow and makes your system work harder to keep cool. Clean filters prevent dust and dirt from building up in the system — leading to expensive maintenance or early system failure.

Customer Satisfaction


New York experienced a record-breaking winter this pasted year. Some residents stayed cozy and saved money on their energy bills throughout the season with BrightHome's energy efficient solutions.

We love the way the house is actually warm now. If we turn off the heat overnight, the place is still comfortable the next morning.
