How it works? We are sure you are still asking why is all this free? It's simple. We are getting paid but not from you but the electric delivery companies. Based on the pre and post testing results, the electric delivery companies are purchasing the energy savings we have provided you. As a result of these savings, the utilities do not have to invest millions in additional infrastructure like power plants and you reduce your utility bill in the process. Free Lighting Corp nor the utility charges you for any work we perform for you. IT'S FREE!!! How do you sign up?
The only way to get on the list is to call either 866-484-3519 or 281-922-4388. The reason is we need to ask a few questions about your home and ensure it qualifies in one the utilities we serve. We will then add you to our list and call you to schedule an appointment in advance once we are in your area. *We do not share any information to any third party just the utility once work is complete* Once you are scheduled
Once we call you and setup an appointment time and date, the day of your appointment a crew of two or three gentleman will arrive in a white van with our company sign on each side within the appointment window time. Each person will carry company identification. With your permission, they will precede to walk through your home and perform diagnostic testing. After their assessment, they will do any work they can for you and perform post testing. The crew will have a contract for you to sign giving them permission to begin the work and they will need another signature when they have completed the work. It clearly states on the contract there is no charge to you but the contract is merely proof we performed work at your home. Below is the diagnostic testing we do before and after our work. (See Free Services we provide for what work we do to try to save you energy)  Home Tightness Test (Blower Door) A Blower Door Test determines the air infiltration rate of air entering or leaving the building. There are several reasons for establishing the proper building tightness. An appropriately sealed home will: • Reduce energy consumption due to air leakage • Diminish potential condensation problems • Avoid discomfort caused by air leaking in from the outside
Duct Efficiency Test (Duct Blower) A Duct Efficiency Test is performed utilizing a Duct Blower. This device can accurately measure the tightness of the duct system. Duct leakage is directly related to energy waste. The EPA states, “Typical duct systems lose 25% to 40% of the heating and cooling energy put out by the central furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner”. See EPA publication (DOE/EEO109) for additional information. With the knowledge we have today, a properly sealed duct system should have no more than 10% leakage. Utility may call to set up an appointment to inspect our work
The utility typically calls about 10% of the customers we do work for to ensure we are following the guidelines. Other than that we have completed your energy efficiency upgrade and we hope you will notice a reduction in your utility bill and increased comfort in your home. |
