Northern Wisconsin’s Insulation And Building Science Experts

Rhinelander-area natives Sam and Ashly Hartmann have been working with builders and homeowners to make homes in Northern Wisconsin more comfortable since 2000. Drawing on Sam’s career in custom home construction, the couple saw an opportunity to improve the energy efficiency and sustainability of both new and existing homes in this harsh climate using a whole-home building science approach to air-sealing and insulation technology.

Working with Madison-based Focus on Energy, RVI quickly became known as building science experts, dedicated to educating homeowners and builders about modern insulation options and installing those new technologies for increased energy efficiency that improves overall home performance and comfort.

Testimonials

Terrific people to work with, they go above and beyond to make sure that everything is done correctly and will not have problems in the future. Would highly recommend them and would not hesitate to call them if I had other work that needs to be done.

Kathy Chavez

We were extremely pleased with the work that RVI did on our garage. From the initial estimate to installation, everything went smoothly and FAST! They always replied very quickly to all my inquiries. We highly recommend Sam and the team at RVI.

Melissa Kay

The presence of Sam and his crew during insulation was a pure delight. The job they did on every part of our building was excellent. Now that we live here we are amazed at how quiet it is in our place even during storms. It’s a new build so cannot compare costs to before RVI but heating costs compared to previous older home are much less. So thankful and blessed to have worked with RVI.

Kitty Cook

We’ve worked on many great projects together, and looking forward to many more. Knowledgeable and quality work every time.
