During in a block party celebrating Energy Upgrade California on Saturday, July 16, dozens of Chula Vista residents toured the home of Mike Gorski and Paul Whitsell in Rancho Del Rey, which was recently given a complete home energy efficiency remodel through the Community Savings Initiative. Their home was upgraded with new duct work, high-efficiency air conditioning and heating systems, energy-saving lighting, tankless water heater, ENERGY STAR appliances, better insulation, energy monitoring systems and more. Check out the Gorski’s energy-efficient model home.
Highlighting the day’s events was a visit and inaugural presentation by Chula Vista Mayor Cheryl Cox, who toured the model home, talked with exhibitors and discussed with local homeowners their homes’ energy performance.
The block party also featured exhibits by the initiative’s preapproved contractors, ASI Hastings Heating and Air Conditioning and Greenwise Solutions; the City of Chula Vista Clean Initiative; the Otay Water District and the South Bay Family YMCA. There were kids’ activities, prizes and free tacos that made the festive event fun for the whole family.
