Wellington
Wellington is not just in our service area, it is our home. PowerHouse is headquartered right here on County Road 60, which means the fastest response times, crews who know these subdivisions and farm properties personally, and a neighbor-grade standard on every job.

Why Wellington Homes Are Different
Homes on the open plains work harder
Wellington sits exposed on the northern Colorado plains, and its mix of newer subdivisions and older rural properties creates two very different performance problems that we see every week.
Wind-driven air leakage
Constant prairie wind pressurizes one side of the house and pulls conditioned air out the other. Air sealing pays off faster here than almost anywhere on the Front Range.
Fast-built subdivision stock
Many newer Wellington homes were built quickly during growth booms, and builder-grade insulation often leaves attics and rim joists well short of what this climate demands.
Rural properties and outbuildings
Farmhouses and acreage properties bring older wiring, additions with mismatched insulation, and wells and outbuildings that all affect the whole-home picture.
Larimer County radon
Our county sits in the EPA’s highest radon risk zone. Testing is the only way to know where your home stands.
Diagnostics
What we commonly find in Wellington homes
These are the patterns that show up repeatedly in this housing stock and climate. Your home gets tested, not assumed, but this is where we look first.
Rim joists nobody sealed
On fast-built subdivision homes the rim joist band is often the single largest uncontrolled leak, and it is invisible until a blower door finds it.
Attic insulation at bare code
Growth-era builds commonly shipped at minimum depth, which the wind then redistributes into drifts and bare spots over the years.
Additions that fight the original house
Rural additions frequently tie into the original envelope without continuous insulation or air barrier, creating a cold zone at the seam.

Wellington questions, answered
Are you actually based in Wellington?
Yes. Our headquarters is at 4349 E County Rd 60, Wellington, CO 80549. When you call us, you are calling a neighbor, not a dispatch center two counties away.
Do you serve rural properties outside town?
All the time. Acreage properties, farmhouses, and homes on wells are a big part of our Wellington work, including older wiring evaluations and outbuilding considerations.
Is radon really a problem in Wellington?
Larimer County is in the EPA’s highest-risk radon zone, and Wellington homes test high regularly. A test is the only way to know, and mitigation reliably fixes it when levels are elevated.
Which rebates do Wellington homes get?
It depends on your utility: Poudre Valley REA members qualify for free energy audits, and Xcel customers get up to 60% audit coverage plus efficiency rebates. We verify your address during the quote.
How fast can you get to a Wellington job?
We are headquartered here, so Wellington gets our fastest scheduling, often same-day for urgent heating and cooling calls.
