Energy-Efficient Construction for Multifamily Housing

SCI builds and renovates multifamily housing using high-performance building practices that reduce energy use, improve durability, and lower long-term operating costs.

Our Construction Services

Energy Retrofit Construction

Deep energy retrofits for existing multifamily buildings that improve efficiency, comfort, and building durability.

High-Performance Renovations

Renovation projects designed to significantly reduce energy use through improved insulation, air sealing, and mechanical upgrades.

Mechanical System Upgrades

Installation of high-efficiency heating, cooling, and domestic hot water systems.

Building Envelope Improvements

Air sealing, insulation upgrades, and window replacement that improve building performance and reduce maintenance issues.

Utility Program Construction Support

Implementation of improvements required to meet Mass Save, NYSERDA, and other program incentives.

Built on Real Building Science

SCI’s construction team works alongside our energy consultants and engineers. That means the high-performance strategies recommended during design are actually implemented during construction.

Because we also develop and manage buildings, we understand how construction decisions affect operating costs and long-term maintenance.

Our Construction Process

Assessment
Evaluation of building systems, envelope, and energy performance.

01

Design Coordination
Working with the consulting team to define energy and construction scope.

02

Implementation
Construction upgrades including envelope improvements, mechanical systems, and safety updates.

03

Verification
Testing and commissioning to ensure the building performs as designed.
