About Greenfoot
Greenfoot Energy Solutions was established in 2014 by a group of energy efficiency experts dedicated to improving energy efficiency in Atlantic Canada. After operating an energy auditing company for eight years and conducting over 30,000 energy assessments, they recognized that simply offering recommendations for energy efficiency upgrades was insufficient.
The industry’s challenge was that most contractors provided only one or two services, often leading to a “one-size-fits-all” approach for homeowners. This raised concerns about the trustworthiness of contractors’ recommendations, as they were limited to just one solution.
True unbiased advice on energy efficiency could only be provided by a company offering a full range of home efficiency upgrades, removing any potential conflicts of interest. This realization led to the creation of Greenfoot, with the goal of becoming a comprehensive “One-Stop Shop” and the industry leader in whole-home energy solutions.
Today, Greenfoot employs over 1000 team members across Canada and is poised to expand further throughout Canada and the United States. We are very proud to add Alpine Insulation to our team and look forward to being your one stop shop for all of your home comfort needs!

Greenfoot Partner Insurance
Greenfoot Energy is committed to maintaining the highest safety and quality standards. All our HVAC technicians are Red Seal certified, ensuring top-tier expertise and professionalism. While warranties vary by service, our 12-year heat pump warranty stands out as an industry leader, giving you peace of mind and long-lasting value.
Safety
Alpine is committed to the safety and well-being of our employees. We have taken the appropriate steps to equip them with the equipment, knowledge and training that they require to do their job safely as well as empowering them to make intelligent decisions when it comes to safety on the job.
We strive to ensure that our employees only operate in safe working conditions; however, we cannot control the conditions on every job site. We have therefore underscored to our employees that they have the obligation to refuse unsafe work. If they encounter anything that they feel is unsafe, they are to contact our office and the site superintendent in order to find a resolution to any issues that they have. We recently updated our Exposure Control Plan which covers the work that we do with spray foam and provide that to clients who request such in advance of doing any work for them.
Most of our 50 employees have received basic first aid training along with other job specific training relevant to their job. Each of our spray foam applicators has been certified and is governed by our Exposure Control Plan as required by WorkSafeBC.
Employee Training
All employees who have direct occupational exposure to sprayfoam chemicals must be certified by Caliber. (sprayers)
All employees who may have occupational exposure to sprayfoam chemicals as a technician’s helper will receive training on the composition, application, safe handling, symptoms, and spill management of sprayfoam chemicals.
Universal Precautions
All employees will utilize universal precautions when working on or around a project where spray foam is being utilized. PPE is provided to Alpine employees at no cost to them.
