Wind Power

Wind Power is the harnessing of the wind to produce electricity. Vermont is better suited for wind power than most people believe. Again, depending upon your location and budget, wind energy can be used to offset your utilities from 10% to 100%. Andrew Ladd Builders works with its customers to upgrade existing power systems or incorporate wind energy into new projects.

Geo Thermal

Andrew Ladd Builders believes in the potential of geothermal heating and air conditioning for new and old homes. Geothermal heating and cooling systems use groundwater as a source of heat in the winter and a cooling in the summer. Using geothermal technology has proven to cut home heat and cooling costs by 30-50%.

Andrew Ladd Builders uses spray foam insulation as an environmentally friendly way to reduce our customers heating bills for new and existing homes.
