Owning a home in Asheville or Western North Carolina comes with unique rewards – and unique challenges. Mountain weather brings hot, humid summers and sometimes chilly winters. Older homes can have drafty attics, damp crawl spaces, or outdated insulation that make it harder to stay comfortable and keep energy bills under control. For many property owners, creating a healthy, efficient, long-lasting home environment requires the help of specialists who know the terrain.
That’s where Conservation Pros, a locally owned and operated building-performance company based in Asheville, comes in. With more than 10 years of experience working across Buncombe County and the surrounding mountain region, they focus on improving comfort, energy efficiency and indoor air quality for homeowners. Their deep knowledge of local housing and climate challenges makes them a trusted partner for property owners throughout Western North Carolina.
Issues to address in your Asheville Area home
Conservation Pros offers a range of services designed to address the common issues that reduce comfort, raise energy bills, and diminish indoor air quality. Here’s what they provide for Asheville and WNC property owners:
Energy audits/home performance assessments – A comprehensive evaluation of your home’s insulation, air leakage, duct performance and energy flow. This identifies problem areas common in older mountain homes and gives you a roadmap for upgrades to improve efficiency.
Insulation – Professional installation of cellulose or fiberglass insulation in attics, open or closed walls, and floor spaces. This reduces heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, especially critical in homes with vaulted ceilings or high rooflines.
Air sealing – Addressing cracks, gaps and leaks in the building envelope and attic. Air sealing minimizes drafts, reduces moisture infiltration and lowers energy bills by addressing one of the leading causes of wasted energy.
Crawl space encapsulation – Installation of vapor barriers, moisture control systems and sealing to transform damp crawl spaces into dry, healthy spaces. Particularly important in Western N.C.’s humid climate, this service helps prevent mold, pests and structural damage. Conservation Pros also offers free crawl space assessments.
As an example of their work in the community, a Conservation Pros representative recently visited Mosaic Realty’s Asheville offices to assess ductwork and the heating/cooling system. The team provided an incremental plan for energy-saving improvements along with remediation services, demonstrating their ability to tailor solutions to the specific needs of each property.
