FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New partnership combines services of Neptune Plumbing with the energy efficiency benefits of Sustainable Improvements

Cleveland, OH– April 29, 2010 – Neptune Plumbing & Heating Co. (www.NeptunePlumbing.net), a Cleveland-based plumbing contractor, today announced their partnership with the energy efficiency consulting firm, Sustainable Improvements (www.sustainableimprovements.org).  This partnership will benefit the clients of Neptune Plumbing in many ways by offering a wide array of energy efficient improvement opportunities.

Sustainable Improvements details the best practiced guidelines aimed at homeowners, builders and designers who seek to incorporate energy-efficient building methods into an existing structure. Whether it is residential or commercial properties, fixtures or appliances, they can help to ensure appropriate measures are taken for obtaining the tax credits and rebates needed to make a property “greener” and more sustainable.  Sustainable Improvements supports energy efficiency as a cost-effective energy resource under existing market conditions and advocates energy-efficient policies that minimize costs to society and individual consumers.  These procedures will also lessen greenhouse gas emissions and their impact on the global climate.  Sustainable Improvements offers eco-friendly alternatives in a vast selection of areas including roofing, high-efficiency toilets, insulation, HVAC, water heaters and windows.
    
In addition to federal tax incentives, some consumers will also be eligible for utility or state rebates, as well as state tax incentives for energy-efficient homes.  The rebate program will help offset the cost premium that is often associated with building an energy efficient home or remodeling an existing home, including the purchase of appliances and fixtures.

“We are extremely excited by our new partnership with Sustainable Improvements,” said Vice President of Construction Mark Novak.  “This alliance will provide our customers the opportunity to not only to do something positive for the environment, but to also save money in the process.”
