Testimonials for Dave Hoh's Home Comfort & Energy Experts

"The professionalism and the knowledge they have makes them top notch." With all the concerns we were having with our AC & heating units we did not realize we also had horrible insulation. The crew came in and did what they do best, make our home more comfortable and energy efficient. "Our units are now turning off when they need to and not constantly running." We would like to thank our customer Linda and Jay for the kind words. Thank You!

"We moved into our house a little over 2 years ago. We loved the cathedral ceiling but a previous owner either removed an attic space or ceiling insulation to achieve the exposed beam look. While it looked cool, it was anything but when the summer rolled around. Heading into our 3rd summer here, we knew we shouldn’t continue this way. When temps would go above 80°, our AC would run practically all day, and if it was above 90° outside - forget it, the air couldn’t even come close and it would be 80° inside. We turned to Dave Hoh’s Home Confort after having a SaveGreen analysis done. We met with a few companies before landing on Dave Hoh’s/Dr. Energy. Our situation was a bit different than the norm and we needed insulation directly on the roof deck. The salesperson I dealt with (Colby) was very knowledgeable, friendly, honest, transparent, not pushy, and answers all and any questions along the way. I felt he truly understood our problem and asked a lot of questions of the house to give us the best solution. The install team was also friendly, and respectful of our house and belongings. They began installing at the start of a heat wave and it truly gave us an immediate comparison. The temperature difference in our house is so noticeable & the AC turned off! Keeping the house cool in the 73°-76° range on a 93°+ day! We are very happy with the results and the SilverGlo product. Thanks team!"

We originally called Dr. Energy Saver after seeing their crawlspace solutions on their website. We wanted to have something done about our dirty and damp crawlspace because our wood floors were freezing in the winter. When we saw the Clean Space Liner and how it looked in other crawlspaces we knew that it would help our problem. What we did not expect is how much it actually made a difference! Our floors have been comfortable year round and has saved us more than Dave told us it would in energy!

I moved into a house with very old insulation, which by the way, housed mice in the winter. The crew came in and very quickly removed all old insulation and replaced with rodent-deterrent cellulose. In and out without any issues. For a house that’s over 60 years old, I’m very comfortable with the thermostat set at 68. The house holds its temperature perfectly and the plus side is no mice :).

I have been seeking different estimates from several company’s and Colby was the most professional, knowledgeable and informative sales person I had the pleasure of working with. Colby listened to my needs (comfort) and wants (storage). After listening, he took his time in telling me what he recommended and why he recommended the solutions he had for my space. He supported his recommendation with videos and flyers instead of just his words. With that being said I felt completely comfortable with my decision to go with this company. There were no hidden surprises or uncertainties. Yes, I used the “Savegreen Project” and yes, I did get other quotes from companies who use the program as well. The difference between Dave Hoh and other companies was the detailed information, break down of every scope of work and what they were able to offer me storage space with insulation. With other companies, I had to give up my storage space to get more insulation. Thanks to the 4” foamboards and sealing, I did not have to sacrifice any of my storage space. Nate and other installers were professional, clean and thorough with their work. They showed up on time and they left on time. They quoted the install to be four days and that's exactly how long it took as promised. The work looks amazing! I think my attic looks better than before! Look for yourself. I have attached before and after photos. The ductwork without the foam are the before photos. I definitely recommend 100%.

Dave was very informative and we felt he was very honest. We only met with Dave and felt comfortable hiring him. I would generally get 2-3 quotes but felt Dave was a straight shooter!

We are thankful we contacted Dave to remedy our crawl space. Dave’s teams were true professionals and great craftsmen who are able to work in uncomfortable environments. Just 2 days after the project was finished our floors were quiet and we noticed a huge difference in comfort. We were also surprised during a power outage the dehumidifier they installed never needed to be reset. The most important issue that they resolved was the smell from the rodent or mice we had living or infested in our crawl space. After they completed the project we were so happy that the odor or smell was eliminated. Our family noticed we felt better or healthier especially after Dave’s crew created a better indoor air quality for our house.

I called my sales representative during our insulation job, very concerned. One of the crew accidentally cracked the living room ceiling. Altough they assured me the company would take care of it, we had problems with other contractors before.  The owner called and also assured me he would repair, paint and make sure we were satified. He suggested withholding a portion of the job cost until we were happy.  As he said, Eddie the painter came over promptly completed the repair and painting. It looks better than before. What I said was, it's a pleasure to work with professionals who deliver what was promised. When I had a concern, they took care or it without question. The work turned out great. Thank You,  H.S.

Irene called Dr. Energy Saver because she just wasn't feeling comfortable in her Toms River home because of the hot and cold spots everywhere. After Dr. Energy completed our comprehensive diagnosis, we found that Irene's home was lacking the proper insulation it needed in order to keep Irene and her family comfortable through the extreme weather. After choosing Dr. Energy to solve her home's problems Irene was excited to report that she 'now can relax in shorts and a t-shirt in the middle of winter' which she never could before in her own home!

About two years ago I moved into a 10 year old town house in Toms River.  It was May when I first moved in, and I knew there was something seriously wrong a couple weeks later when the summer heat came and I turned on the AC. There was no AC making it upstairs, none at all!  The vents felt cold, but no cold air was blowing out of the vents.  It was very cold downstairs but nothing was making it upstairs.  If it was 70 degrees downstairs, it was 84 degrees upstairs.  I also noticed my downstairs closet was getting air conditioned when there was no vent there, and some of my downstairs walls felt very cold. There were other oddities, like the electrical outlets in my downstairs laundry room had cold air coming out of them.        I had to get this fixed. I called a well established local HVAC business and had them come over and give me an estimate.  They quickly determined that I needed a two zone air conditioning system because that was the only way I’d get any AC upstairs. When I pointed out the cold closet, electrical outlet and other anomalies, they just shrugged their shoulders and told me “air flow is weird”.  They gave me an estimate of $18,000 to have the two zone AC installed.     I called another local HVAC for another estimate. They suggested a bigger, better AC unit, a stronger blower, and an air exchanger installed in the ceiling of my stairway.  They said the air exchanger would not look very nice, would be loud, but would do the job of helping move the cool air upstairs.  I also pointed out the anomalies and again, they just shrugged their shoulders and explained that air flow is difficult to predict and once they did their job those anomalies would “probably “go away.  I didn’t bother to get an estimate because I didn’t like their proposed solution.        I suffered through the first summer constantly arranging fans and sleeping downstairs in my living room.  My condo association didn’t allow any window units installed, so I was stuck.  It was very depressing.  I was not enjoying my new home at all.        The next summer I was going to be prepared!  Over the winter months I did research and found info about companies that do air flow studies and home energy audits.  I saw a video on the internet showing people using meters, infrared cameras, and other equipment to find solutions. This is what I needed!  I continued my research and along the way found the NJ clean energy website (http://www.njcleanenergy.com).  They described exactly what I was looking for to fix my problem.  The website included a list of certified contractors, so I began to make phone calls. The first couple of certified contractors I called didn’t seem to have the meters and cameras that I learned through my research would be necessary for the audit, though they were quite anxious to come over to give me an estimate anyway!   I continued my phone calls.  The next contractor said they had special measuring devices, and no special cameras were needed. When I asked for the cost to do the audit they wouldn’t provide an estimate and instead I was told that it would be included in the overall cost of the work they would do. They told me they didn’t do the “test” until after the work was done.  I asked, “How do they know what needs to be fixed if they don’t do the audit first?”  I was told that they were professionals and had many years of experience and they would just know what to do to fix my problem.  I didn’t agree.  I was getting discouraged and thought I’d try just one more contractor.       I then called another contractor from the list, DH Services Group in Lake Como.   I asked about their home energy audit and the very knowledgeable woman who answered the phone eagerly explained how they do the audit.  They had meters, cameras and they would perform a test before any work was done and analyze all the results to find a solution to my problem. This is exactly what I needed!  The cost of the audit was very reasonable so I made an appointment.  They sent over two workers who explained everything to me and most important, they listened to me!  When they observed no A/C upstairs and after I showed them all the problems on the first floor, the cold closet, the cold walls, the cold air coming out of the electric outlets – they didn’t shrug their shoulders, they went to work!  They were eager to find out the cause of the problem.  They used the infrared camera and meters and found a large cold area on my ceiling. I was shown the image on the camera and saw the big blue area on my ceiling.   They went around the rest of the house, inside and outside, did more tests, found more problems, but came back to the intriguing big blue spot on my ceiling downstairs.  After some deductive reasoning, more camera work and meter work, the DH Services workers narrowed the big blue spot down to a smaller specific area where they wanted to cut into the dry wall on the ceiling and take a look.  Without hesitation, I let them cut into the drywall. They removed a small piece of the dry wall, maybe 5” x 10” and took a look and discovered the primary cause of my problem:  there was dead ended duct work that wasn’t capped off!  The AC was just flowing into my downstairs ceiling and into the walls downstairs.    The hole they cut into the ceiling was in the exact correct location, so without having to do anymore cutting into my drywall, they were able to temporarily cover the open duct work with some tape and it was like a miracle!!  I now had AC upstairs!  I think I may have cried and I know I professed my sudden love for these two workers!  They finished up their tests and data collection.  They explained there were more leaks and other areas of concern that would be explained in the final report.        A few days later I met with the owner of DH, Dave.  He spent quite a bit of time going over the audit results and his recommendations.   He also explained about the special programs, including rebates offered by NJ Clean Energy.   He presented the various options and his recommendations.   There were other “blue spots” indicating more problems, and the test that was done also indicated poorly insulated areas throughout my townhouse.  I knew I wanted my entire town house sealed-up and well insulated.   Dave was very honest and told me he thought that I could probably get a couple more years out of my AC unit, furnace, and hot water heater so he recommended that I go with the insulation work for now and suggested I think about doing the rest of the work either when the equipment fails or sometime in the near future.       But because this problem existed for the past 10 years, (before I ever moved in) I figured it must have added to the wear and tear of those units, making them inefficient and unreliable.  Plus I just couldn’t pass up the excellent rebates and offers available at that time that Dave told me about.  Per my request, Dave provided a new proposal including everything, the insulation work, new A/C, furnace, and water heater. He provided the new proposal and he even figured out my monthly payment along with the estimated energy cost savings. He showed me that even with paying back the loan, I would still be paying less per month.  So with all the great rebates and special finance offered by NJNG at the time, the price was right, so work began a week later.     They were all very professional. During the install, they were very neat and precise.  They properly covered up that open duct work and did all the other repairs and improvements.  They accomplished a lot of work each day and showed up every day.  These guys did great!  If I had any questions or concerns, I got an immediate response.  They were professional, on time, courteous, personable, and best of all they were proud of their work.  They did things the right way, no corners cut.   Was this the twilight zone or just the best contractors I’ve ever hired?       It all worked out just like Dave said – started and completed as he told me, no extra costs, everything worked out just like he said.  They did everything right. And yes, my energy bills are much less.  And just as Dave said, even with my monthly loan payments, I am still paying less per month!  I love my new A/C, furnace, and water heater – they all work great!       My house is so much cozier. I actually breathe better and feel better. The heat during the winter was much better too.   Another bonus, less bugs!   This past spring would have normally brought on a significant amount of bugs including ants, spiders, centipedes, etc.  I had 2 spiders, that’s it.  No ants, nothing else.  Now that summer is here, my A/C is in full use and my upstairs is still like a dream.  It is nice and cool upstairs, the A/C is coming out full force out of the vents up there!  It is wonderful. I certainly did not need the overpriced two zone A/C or the stupid air exchanger those other contractors wanted to install!      It’s hard to put into words, but my house just feels so much better!  It feels healthier and more in balance. I am so happy that I went with DH Services.  I don’t believe anyone else would have ever figured out that problem with the open duct work!  Everything works great, I now love living in my townhouse! Thanks to all the great employees of DH Services!  No twilight zone, these are the best contractors I’ve ever hired.   I obviously highly recommend them!
