Energy Efficient Home

At GE-HI, We See Your Home a Little Differently

Houses are not just foundations, walls, and roofs, but are made up of systems that either work together or fight one another.

Attic Case Study

When these systems work together properly, you save money over the long term.  Your home becomes “energy efficient” in ways that offer greater comfort, health and cost savings than ever before.

Unlike traditional home improvement contractors, at GE-HI our people are trained in the new energy efficient sciences.  They can evaluate your home and advise you as to the best use of your budget.

Your Roof

Your roof is not just shingles and nails. To us at GE-HI, it is a Water Management Assembly.

Our primary goal in the roof assembly is to direct water away from the exterior of the home to avoid mold, rot, and the general wear caused by moisture.

We work to keep the roof deck at an ambient temperature for two reasons: roofing materials will wear longer and your home will be more comfortable.  A proper attic and roofing assembly even prevents ice dams!  Learn more on our Roofing and Water Management page.

Windows in patio roomYour Windows

Your windows are not just glass and frames.  To the experts at GE-HI they are an Air & Radiant Barrier Assembly made up of elements like weight wells, insulation, weather stripping, glass, seals, spacers, inert gas, frames, and more.  To bring you the best, GE-HI has chosen Slocomb Windblocker Replacement Windows.

Slocomb windows provide our residential customers with customization, style, masterful window designs, and unsurpassed quality.  Learn more on our Window Replacement page.

It should come as no surprise that GE-HI’s windows are among the best commercially available high-performance vinyl replacement windows.  These windows have superior energy savings, exceed all NFRC and Energy Star Requirements, and have the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval.

Siding

Your siding is not just paint, trim, and shutters.  It is a Weather Barrier assembly made up of insulation, air barriers, sheathing, trim finishes, and more.

Exterior sidewalls bear the brunt of New England’s harsh weather but are expected to be beautiful year round.  How did GE-HI meet this challenge?

EnviroWall™ is a system that offers all the colors and features a homeowner could wish for along with the durability an honest retailer needs to back their labor warrantee.  That’s why when Associated Materials Incorporated (AMI) offered GE-HI the Boston area exclusively, we snapped it up without hesitation.  It also helped that the EnviroWall™ system is 100% American materials and labor.
