Inflation Reduction Act

Get Financial Help for Your Home's Energy Efficiency Improvements

The inflation reduction act is a federal program that is offering energy efficiency rebates that can be combined with the already existing state programs to provide even more savings. Included in this act is the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit: this expands the credit to allow households to deduct 30% of the costs of eligible upgrades from their taxes. This credit can be combined with the Empower + or comfort home savings to lower the cost of energy efficiency upgrades even further for consumers.

The installation crew was great! We noticed a spot that didn't adhere and they came back later that same day to correct it. Richard - we really appreciate the prompt and easy communication. Thank you!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with Richard and his team.  From beginning to end, they walked us through the process and stayed in constant communication with us along the way.  Our house is so much warmer following their work, just in time for the winter months.  Thanks again for everything.  We highly recommend True Building Performance!!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We needed our garage insulated. They replied promptly to my call and scheduled the estimate within days. It took half a day to complete and we’re happy with the work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard has mastered the process of assessment and recommendations for energy savings. His knowledge of costs and benefits of air sealing, insulation and equipment upgrades allowed him to provide advice customized for our house, and he did not hesitate to advise us to make no changes where costs exceeded benefits, even for services that his company provides. Very helpfu and honest.  Excellent.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were recommended to speak to True Building Performance by two non-profits that advise on home Heating & Cooling as being honest and straight forward.  That was exactly what we received. We discussed our house and our situation and we ended up not needing anything from True Building Performance at this time and he was able to give me a referral to somebody who could resolve our issue.

I want to make this clear - the gentlemen said he didn't think an evaluation was necessary.  He didn't try to get us to sign up for an evaluation we didn't need or upsell us on anything and I don't know much about this stuff so it would've been easy. Just an honest person who gave us an great referral who also has been honest and straight forward.  If you need an audit this is the company to go to. The group that recommended TBP was the Clean Energy Hub for the Capital Region and the Cornell Extension Program.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We moved into our current home in Sept 2021.  The first winter was painfully cold.  After doing hours of research and general maintenance I discovered the attic insulation services of True Building Performance.  Paul stopped over on a very hot Aug 2022 morning and did an inspection of attic insulation.  What he found was destroyed insulation from pests and ducting installation.  He informed us that we basically had zero R value in our attic.  Pauls crew returned in mid September 2022 to tackle the job over 2 days.

His team pulled the old insulation, removed and sealed the "attic/house fan", air sealed the entire attic, dry walled dead attic vents, and added insulation into the walls between our garage and main house.  Once all the prep was done his team blew in 15" of blown cellulose insulation.

Granted this winter hasn't been as severe so far, but wow what a difference.  We are able to heat our house with our wood stove and haven't needed to turn on any additional heat sources.

Updating insulation isn't the most glamorous home remodel but out of all the updates we've done in the last year the new insulation has been the most impactful to our quality of life.

Thank you Paul and everyone at True Building Performance!
