"I had e-Shield insulation, a product by Pro Materials Direct, installed in my attic in Oct. 2013. I was told if I didn't save 25% on energy usage in the first year I would be refunded the difference. After a year I noted that my energy usage, both kilowatts for electricity as well as therms for gas, were higher on average per month than before I had it installed. I don't think it obviously reduced efficiency, but more likely that it was just a slightly colder winter, slightly warmer summer and it didn't really make a difference at all. Upon examining the 25% savings guarantee closer I realized it was only up to $500, a fact that was not verbalized initially and was in small print on a certificate buried in with other papers that I didn't even get until the contract for the job was already signed. The most frustrating thing isn't that I wasted over $4000 on a product that hasn't done anything for me, it’s that after filing all paperwork needed for the $500 guaranteed rebate I still haven't received what they promised. I sent in 2 years worth of utility bills and received a check for $343. I have called multiple times and nobody can even tell me how they arrived on that number. After fighting with both Home Energy Solutions (the installation company), and Pro Materials Direct for the past two months and making a dozen or so phone calls to both companies, it is apparent that they do not intend on honoring their agreement. For both this reason and the fact that the product did not work in the least bit for me, I would strongly advise against both Home Energy Solutions and Pro Materials Direct and their e-Shield product."
