Our Whole House Retrofit program focuses on ultimate home performance in order to provide energy savings while increasing your home’s comfort.
As an approved contractor for Energy Upgrade California, Clarke & Rush is able to offer the best products while still delivering affordable prices through incredible financing and rebate offers. We are also qualified to deliver SMUD and PG&E home performance programs that can amount to thousands of dollars in rebates.
We are proud to offer an important opportunity for our customers. Home performance pre-assessments are now being offered at no cost to homeowners. These assessments can lead to generous financial benefits, such as rebates and low-interest financing with SMUD, Ygrene, HERO, CHF, and mPOWER.
This aims to provide an accurate assessment in order to identify any area of your home’s performance that could be costing you money. Your home is measured for heating, cooling, windows, doors, insulation and plumbing, including hot water heaters. If needed, we can even help improve your indoor air quality by sealing leaks and cracks that let unfiltered outside air make its way inside.
We can analyze your home, provide you with a professional recommendation, and help you apply for the SMUD, Ygrene, CHF, HERO and mPOWER Financing Programs.
Upon having your home assessed, our expert energy consultants present customers with a prioritized list of retrofits to increase your home’s energy performance. Homeowners will also receive a quote showing the actual costs as well as any rebates available to them. From here, you may choose to implement specific improvements from the PG&E Whole House or SMUD Home Performance Programs in order to best fit your home’s needs.
There is no obligation and no pressure; homeowners decide which improvements they want to do and when to do them. Rebates can be directly applied to the contract or directly to the homeowner.

Everything from HVAC systems, windows, and insulation feel the effects from those weather extremes.
