GreenFitters is a New York-based consultancy
and contracting firm that specializes in helping buildings lower
their energy and utility usage. Commercial and residential buildings
in the United States account for nearly 40% of the nation’s
energy consumption, and that figure is expected to rise, with
continued population and urban center growth. Of this, over 99%
comes from non-renewable sources.
Despite
the availability of solar panels, wind turbines and other sources—a
welcome development in the energy sector—it is often difficult
for existing properties to tap into these sources. This is particularly
true in urban centers, like New York City, where existing power
grids, as well as existing construction, infrastructure and urban
regulations combine to create a challenging scenario for energy
restructuring. This makes the power consumption of large buildings
in New York City particularly troubling, and it also makes it
difficult for these properties to fully monetize in line with
the green revolution.
GreenFitters
aims to alleviate these concerns. By retrofitting existing buildings,
we can reduce energy consumption, reducing costs and carbon footprints.
A typical retrofit can be as simple as replacing light bulbs,
streamlining plumbing systems and recaulking windows; or can be
as extensive as removing floors, ceilings and walls, cutting new
windows, and reworking entire HVAC systems. We are prepared to
begin your project immediately and will guide you through each
step of the process. Whether you want to cut costs, or to go green,
GreenFitters is your complete solution!
