Company Summary

Pono Home offers a comprehensive green home consultation, teaching occupants energy and water saving habits, auditing energy and water use, and then making infrastructural changes on the spot. We install energy and water efficient devices like smart strips, aerators, lighting, showerheads, toilet tank inserts, etc. In early testing, we estimate payback periods to be about 3 months from reduced utility costs, whether it's a homeowner or renter.
