Every year we install dozens of QuietCool whole house fans for customers all over Vermont, New Hampshire and New York. With our quiet whole house fan systems you can cool your entire house and attic for one tenth the electricity cost that a single air conditioner may cool just one room! And it does it all with FRESH air! Replacing all the air in your home once ever 10 to 15 minutes. You don't have to go to bed in a hot, stale air bedroom every summer day when the average night time temperature in VT in July and August is 64 degrees? Bring that cool, fresh air in through your windows while you suck that hot air out, and dramatically cool your very hot attic at the same time. All done very energy efficiently and a relatively low cost.
Jackman's of Bristol, Inc. has been in business since 1930, starting the Coal and Firewood Business as Jackman Coal & Coke Company by Glenn Jackman, in Bristol. His sons later came into business with him: Fred in 1946 and Glenn Jr. in 1950. Four of Glenn's sons joined the business: Fred and Glenn in Bristol and later Charles and Ralph in Vergennes, after the "Thomas Mack Coal Co." was purchased in Vergennes, and became Jackman Fuels, Inc. in 1938. In 1947, fuel oil was added to the products sold along with L.P. Gas in later years. In 1967, coal was no longer sold. Fred Jackman became sole owner of Jackman's when his brother Glenn Jr. died in 1974. He ran Jackman's until his retirement in February of 1995, when he sold the business to his sons, Paul and Peter. On July 16, 2018 Paul and Peter sold the company to Timothy Bouvier and his wife, Kristine Evarts Bouvier. Tim began working for the company in 1999. With this new ownership, came a new name: Jackman's of Bristol, Inc.
The State of Vermont does not require home improvement contractors to obtain licenses. To ensure the protection and property's safety, homeowners must discuss their projects with their regional office permit specialist.
2015 IBC, the 2012 IPC, and the 2017 NEC are in effect in Vermont and there is not a statewide building code adopted in the state for any single family home improvements to be performed.
