| Feeling the Pain of Oil
Heating a Home with Oil is Costly
| |
 A recent New York Times article highlighted the growing disparity between homes heated with oil vs. gas and electric households.
Nationwide, the average household using oil spent $2,298 on heat last year, compared with $724 spent by gas users and $957 spent by electricity users, according to the Department of Energy.
They went on to say that they think this situation will only worsen, as oil prices are expected to rise even higher.
If you have oil heat, the first step for reducing costs is to find and fix your home's energy leaks with a TerraLogos Audit. The high cost of oil makes this all the more cost effective. If you have central air, you can take advantage of the utility rebate programs and get a $100 audit.
We will also look at your individual situation and identify your best options for the long term to greatly reduce or eliminate your oil usage.

| Easy, Low-interest Financing
Loan Payment Costs Covered by Energy Savings
| |
 To make it easier for more homeowners to take advantage of the Home Performance Process, the MEA introduced the Home Energy Loan Program last February. Since then, TerraLogos has helped many homeowners finance and complete energy improvement projects using these low interest loans. These easy, unsecured loans can range from $1,500 to $30,000, allowing you to balance the monthly cost of the loan against immediate savings and improved comfort.
Due to the initial success of the loan program, Mariner Finance has stepped up to provide additional capital to fund the program for the long term. Now, more homeowners will be able to take advantage of this great service.
Administered by the MD Clean Energy Center, this program offers low 6.99% financing for projects that follow the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR model. There are no application fees, no pre-payment penalties and easy terms. This truly is an excellent financing program without any strings attached.
Projects can be designed so that a majority, if not all, of the monthly loan payment is covered by the energy savings on your utility bill. You can have all the benefits of the Home Performance method -- reduced bills, improved comfort & health, and increased real estate value -- without a large outlay of money.
To qualify for the low 6.99% rate, the loan program requires that you start your energy improvement process the right way -- with a Home Energy Audit by a participating contractor, such as TerraLogos. Then, you will work with your Building Analyst to select projects that both fit your budget and fix the major energy leaks in your home.
Schedule your Home Energy Audit by calling us at 410-225-5040 or by completing and submitting the quick on-line form here. We look forward to working with you.

New Look
| We made a change in our look. Our new logo better fits our vision to provide energy improvement services to both residential and commercial customers.
Some have said it reminds them of an IR image. Others have said it looks like energy escaping from buildings.
We'd like to hear what you see and what you think about it. A full website update will be completed shortly to go along with our new look.
We are evolving as we help others to evolve their environments.
