Can my multifamily building get insulation upgrades at no cost?
Certain qualifying multifamily properties in Illinois may be eligible for insulation, air sealing, and weatherization upgrades at no cost. Eligibility depends on the property, utility service, program requirements, and our review.
What does a multifamily energy assessment include?
The scope can include a building walkthrough, review of comfort concerns, envelope conditions, utility information, and diagnostic testing when appropriate. The exact assessment depends on the property and the program path being considered.
What size multifamily buildings do you work with?
We focus on multifamily properties with 3 or more units, including courtyard apartments, small flats, garden apartments, condominiums, associations, and mixed-use residential buildings.
Do you handle rebate paperwork?
Yes. When a project qualifies and moves forward, we coordinate the applicable program documentation from pre-approval through final submission.
Will the work disrupt my residents?
Nobody moves out. There is no staging and no resident storage. Most of the work happens in the attic, the rim joist, the chases, and the common areas, and where a crew does need to be inside a unit that visit is measured in hours. Access is planned with the property contact, and notice goes out on your normal schedule under your own lease terms.
What do residents actually notice afterward?
Units that hold a temperature instead of swinging well past the thermostat, fewer drafts at baseboards and entry doors, and quieter units, because the gaps that carry air also carry sound. Residents who were running space heaters or window units to cover the gap generally stop needing them.
