Our Beginnings

EverGreen EnergySavers began in 2004 as a dream of founder Nate Munson. Nate wanted to create a company that could help people, help the environment and provide himself, his family and employees with a meaningful livelihood. Today that dream has become a reality as EverGreen EnergySavers performs hundreds of energy audits a year and helps hundreds of homeowners live more comfortably and save money on utility bills while reducing the consumption of fossil fuels.

Our Unique Approach to Energy Audits

Many energy assessments these days are done by a technician or a sales representative with limited training and experience. In addition to holding a Masters degree from the University of Michigan and a Michigan Builders License, Nate Munson became one of the first individuals in Michigan to become a nationally certified RESNET Energy Rater and BPI (Building Performance Institute) Building Analyst and Envelope Professional. “Its all about putting science before the sale… giving people real data, not generic numbers. That builds trust and empowers people to make the most cost effective decisions” says Nate Munson.

Our Community Commitment

EverGreen Energy Savers volunteers energy audit services for Habitat for Humanity and provides assessment and improvement services for other non-profit housing organizations. EverGreen is committed to helping provide affordable, healthy and environmentally responsible housing for all building market segments.

EverGreen EnergySavers help home owners diagnose and “heal” cold, drafty and inefficient houses by applying the correct analytical tools and software along with a unique knowledge of a home’s entire system. Let us help you make your home more efficient, comfortable and earth friendly today!

Testimonials

  • I want to thank you for the great job that you did for us. I was able to experience first hand just how much work was involved, and how extensive the project was. If you ever need a commercial reference, please feel free to use Math Reviews.

    Pam B., Ann Arbor

  • Happy New Year! I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with the upgrades you did for us at our home. The bathroom fan is amazing! And there is a noticeable difference in temperature between the storage part of the attic and the 'room' part of the attic. So thanks!

    Caitlin L., Ann Arbor

  • EverGreen did a fantastic job retro-fitting our home with the latest energy-saving materials, and sealing the unbelievably many places where heat was flowing out. I had no idea that there were so many ways to tighten and better insulate an old, "leaky" house.

    Beth S., Putnam Valley

  • No draftiness and the furnace runs less often. Other (my students) notice the music room is very stable in temperature. I especially liked the grouping of improvements and costs so I could figure out what to have done first.

    Jane H, Ann Arbor

  • No evidence of moisture (frost on the wall and floor)...furnace runs less...house retains heat better...Thanks! You may use me as a reference.

    Donna B, Manchester

  • Hello Nate, Wanted to let you know that my energy usage for mid Feb. - mid March was down from last year for the same period: electric down 34% and gas down 49%. What a difference it made putting in the insulation, changing some lightbulbs, and sealing up the band joists and crawl space.

    DeLynn C, Ann Arbor

  • Hi Nate - Attached below are the electrical and the gas usage comparisons for this house between 2008 and 2009. After Evergreen did the energy conservation work (Feb08), we saw substantial decreases in the gas usage from March 08 and onward...

    David B, Ypsilanti

  • After I had an energy audit by (an insulation company) I added insulation but still noticed a lot of the cold air leaks – Thank you for taking the time to explain to me and show me what was happening (using) your "blower door" – I will be doing air sealing next!"

    Jackie K, Ann Arbor

  • The very first night after (EverGreen) air sealing around our home we noticed such a difference in our daughters' bedroom – what a difference! Thank you!
