Homeowners across Pittsburgh are looking for ways to make their homes more comfortable while lowering energy bills. Are you doing the same?
In this episode of Breathe Easy, Rob Davis and Jake Henderson of Pearl Edison explain how home efficiency upgrades and rebate programs can make those improvements easier and more affordable.
You’re one click away from learning how rebates work, which upgrades qualify, and how to take practical steps toward improving energy efficiency. The discussion covers common upgrades like insulation, heat pumps, and dual-fuel systems, along with expert guidance on how to qualify for and combine available incentives.
Rob and Jake share real-world examples of how small improvements can lead to significant savings over time. From sealing air leaks to upgrading your heating and air conditioning system, the team breaks down what to prioritize and how to ensure you’re getting the most out of available rebate programs.
This episode gives homeowners a clear roadmap to maximize comfort and efficiency while keeping costs in check. Learn how to identify the right upgrades, take advantage of energy rebates, and work with trusted professionals to build a more efficient home that performs year-round.
Key Takeaways:
- Energy efficiency upgrades reduce costs while improving comfort and performance.
- Rebates from utilities, manufacturers, and government programs can lower upfront expenses.
- Proper insulation and air sealing should come before upgrading heating or cooling systems.
