Energy Auditing Reference
Lynn Stacey ~The Villa Rosa
"My husband and I were unconvinced of the cost/benefit of fitting solar geysers at our Guest House – The Villa Rosa. We commissioned an Energy Audit from Green Power Professional Services to accurately calculate the potential savings to be had by installing solar geysers. In addition, we would be advised as to which appliances were consuming the most power. The results were surprising and very helpful. It left us in no doubt of the significant cost savings provided by solar geysers and/or heat pumps. We are now much more aware of how energy management can save money and reduce our carbon footprint. We would highly recommend a full energy audit for your business or your home".
Testimonials
"In September 2009 I decided to investigate solar water heating. A number of companies came to quote for the job, which is on a farm in Wilderness Heights, and includes 2 cottages and the main house, ie three separate residences. The reason I chose Green Power was twofold - (a) the technician who visited and quoted actually knew what he was talking about, and (b) the Green Power systems are SABS approved and thus qualified for the Eskom rebate. It was NOT the least expensive quote, but once the rebate was applied it compared favourably, and one had the comfort of the SABS approval and accompanying long term guarantees.
