A Solar & HVAC Retrofit for a Multifamily Building
Classic New York City Real Estate Gets Energy Upgrades
This beautiful limestone apartment building is the quintessential New York City walk-up building, with three floors and eight units. After completing an energy efficiency study, they learned that BlocPower would be able to support their retrofitting needs.
The Challenge
- The apartment building was plagued with very high energy bills year-round.
- Drafty windows were causing cold, outdoor air to easily find its way into the building, decreasing the apartment's energy efficiency.
- Because of an old and outdated HVAC system, the apartment was not being heated evenly, causing tenant complaints.
The Solution
- In one week’s time, each apartment received 6 indoor air source heat pumps and 2 outdoor units, totaling 18 outdoor units and 48 indoor units.
- Over 80 solar panels were installed with dramatic savings due to BlocPower’s navigation of City and State’s incentive programs.
It's time to improve your building's efficiency. BlocPower offers a number of options to retrofit, electrify and improve your building's energy capability with affordable routes. To get started, answer a few questions about your building.
