Medical Press Release:

During 2011, the Goldsborough Company and its subsidiary Sunbiz Energy Solutions successfully provided Energy Efficiency Services to a limited number of standalone midsize Medical Facilities in the Tampa Bay area. We understand that within the Medical Profession the standards for energy efficiency and a healthier/safer work environments are among the highest. Not only are these professionals providing their employees and patients with a more comfortable and healthy environment, but they are also raising the bar with energy efficiency.

It is because of these higher occupational standards and lower insurance reimbursements that doctors are beginning to feel the pinch. It is to this end it we strive to make our projects the most cost-effective possible or even better, investment-grade improvements with positive cash within a few short years.

Our goal in 2012 will be to continue providing our services to the small to midsize, standalone medical facilities.  This will include the traditional general contracting, preventative maintenance, carefully planned life-cycle optimization, and targeted energy efficiency projects.

Every day around the world well-informed energy conscious consumers are frequently requesting an energy audit that includes a combined use of a blower door and  infrared camera. This process quickly bring to focus unnecessary energy losses that include missing or defective insulation, air leakage in and out of the building and moisture intrusion through the roof or walls.

An Infrared camera can detect many other building defects without the assistance of a blower door that include mold and badly insulated areas, thermal bridging, roofing leaks and especially in hard to detect flat roofs, broken hot or cold water lines, construction failures, electrical shorts and overloaded circuits, Freon leakage at air-conditioning units, HVAC condensers and fans that are subject to eminent failure.

More Energy-Efficient Buildings

Home Performance Contracting……Here’s how we do it 

The first step in the home performance upgrade process would be for us to meet with our customer listen and learn about their known problems and concerns.

Next we will do a home energy and building evaluation. We call this process the home energy audit or analysis. 

Our areas of concern during this audit would include: 

•  The buildings envelope ( wall cavities, roof insulation)
• The heating and cooling equipment
• The air distribution system (ductwork insulation, ductwork sizing)
• The combustion appliances (gas or fuel fired appliances)
• Indoor air quality (fumes, mold or contaminated leakage)
• Thermostats and controls (installing programmable thermostat’s)
• Other energy consuming appliances (pools, refrigerators, microwaves, dishwashers)
• Lighting ( quantitative count of what type of lighting is in use)
• Solar opportunities ( solar electric or solar hot water heating)

 This information is then entered into the Florida Home Energy Gauge Software for analysis. Energy Gauge-Energy and Economic Analysis Software provided by Florida Solar Energy Center.

Step two: We identify opportunities and make recommendations for realistic and affordable remedies to correct deficiencies in the homes energy consuming systems and building envelope. This might include minor tuning and tweaking or for example, improvements to the lighting, insulation, windows or air-conditioning.
Next we will assist you in determining what work makes the most sense to achieve energy cost savings and provide the best improvements to the comfort and health of you and your family.  Once the work is authorized, the package of recommendations that you determined best achieve’s your goals will be performed by our train staff and specialty contractors.

 
Finally:  After completing the work we will perform a follow-up analysis and provide you with a report that verifies the building performance improvements achieved by our staff and specialty contractor.

Over 25 Years of Building Experience places us in the unique position of knowing the best practices and most useful energy efficiency renewable technologies for our client’s residential homes and commercial buildings.

You can start saving money now, regardless of the rebate, by getting a Sunbiz Energy Solutions comprehensive energy assessment.

Do it to make your home more comfortable.

Do it for your family’s health. Do it for the environment.
