Interested in getting your light bulbs changed for free?

We are looking for appointments in Union City!

Headquartered in Berkeley, we began in 2000 and have branched out to 20 cities since. Essentially what we do is we send two energy specialists to go to homes and they check the water and energy levels to make sure everything is efficient. If anything is inefficient they will exchange your gadget for free of cost! We get our funding from PG&E. For example, if one of your light bulbs is incandescent, we can change that for CFLs and if one of your shower heads is inefficient, we can change that out for one that wastes less gpm! If you don't like it, we can always change it back to the original.


This is a limited opportunity that only happens once a year; we run from July to August. We also do solar assessments, collect e-waste and give out free gifts after the greenhouse call is finished!

Don't forget to mention how you found out about us!
