Enterprise Initiatives

We tell our customers that self-sufficiency is the answer to a life of success and self-fulfillment; we believe we should practice what we preach.  To this end, CEO has always believed in building our own sustainable businesses.  We presently have four fee-based services that we offer to the community:  Child care at Stepping Stones II Early Learning Center, Energy Audits offered through Weathertite, Conference Services and Children and Family Counseling.

All four of these fee-based services are successful and are also providing additional employment opportunities for our customers.  This is another example of a win-win situation and CEO making the most of every dollar.

Weathertite

The majority of homes in New York State were built when energy was relatively inexpensive. These homes are significantly more costly to heat than a newer energy-efficient home. Weathertite audits will identify problem areas and inefficiencies in your home and propose repairs that will save you energy and money.

A home energy audit is the first step to assess how much energy your home consumes and to evaluate what measures you can take to make your home more energy efficient.  An audit will show you problems that may, when corrected, save you significant amounts of money over time.  A professional auditor uses a variety of techniques and equipment to determine the energy efficiency of a structure.

For more information on how you can get a home energy audit call Weathertite at 518-272-6012, Ext. 290 or 800-455-6014.
