The EcoLogic Vision
Given that our homes and buildings account for nearly 40% of our nation's energy consumption, building 'green' is the most important step you can take to conserve energy, protect the environment, and create a healthy household. You define your lifestyle, now it's time to define your home. Superior insulation is the cornerstone of today's eco-friendly home. By choosing these advanced green technologies, you are helping to protect and preserve our planet for all who live today and will live in the future.
The Ecologic Team
EcoLogic Energy Solutions was founded by Justin Breiner, Brian Bodell and Michael Lieto in 2006. Their goal is to offer homeowners a way to dramatically reduce their energy consumption. Since air-leakage accounts for the majority of heat loss, EcoLogic Energy Solutions offers a simple solution to "tighten-up" your home, reduce utility bills, improve indoor comfort, absorb sound, and best of all, help our environment and reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
We view each home as a unique challenge that requires thought and attention to detail in order to provide a customized solution. We are passionate about every job and truly believe we are helping to save the environment one home at a time. That is why EcoLogic has assembled the most experienced, detail-oriented and professional team in the industry to make sure your job is done right the first time.
Justin R. Breiner: Justin has extensive experience in small business creation as well as real estate acquisition, management and development. He graduated from New York University's Stern School of Business with a degree in Finance. One of Justin's prior businesses he is most proud of is the creation of The Cure Card - a nationwide consumer loyalty card designed to benefit breast cancer research. The Cure Card has been successful at raising more than $2 million for cancer research. Through Justin's experiences in real estate, he discovered spray foam in a most unique fashion. He unknowingly purchased a cottage that had a serious mold infestation originating underneath the floor in the crawl space. The prior owners had insulated the crawl space with fiberglass, which consequently trapped moist air next to the wood floor and rafters - the result was mold. After much research, Justin concluded that the solution would be to remove the deteriorating fiberglass and install spray foam insulation. The spray foam exceeded Justin's expectations. There was no more mold, the floors stayed warmer, and the house was significantly quieter. Amazed, Justin continued to explore and experience the incredible benefits of spray foam in many of his other properties. As they say, the rest is history...
Brian A. Bodell: A Westport resident, and one of the principles of Ecologic, has over 15 years of experience building custom and spec homes. Brian brings a wealth of construction knowledge to EcoLogic. When constructing his own home in 2005 Brian was curious about the spray foam insulation industry and decided to use spray foam in his own home. After moving into his new house, Brian immediately noticed the improved comfort, air quality and sound attenuation of spray foam. After receiving his first heating bill, Brian was convinced that spray foam would become the industry standard and helped form EcoLogic Energy Solutions in 2006.
Michael J. Lieto: Michael has been working in the spray foam industry for over eight years. Prior to working with EcoLogic Energy Solutions, he began his career as one of the first Icynene sprayers in the Tri-State area.

Michael has become recognized as one of the most skilled technicians in the industry and an expert in the creation of a superior thermal envelope.

Through the creation of EcoLogic Energy Solutions, Michael brings to you his expertise and solutions to your thermal and air-barrier needs. Michael is a devout animal and nature lover. His work brings him great personal and moral satisfaction, with the knowledge that each job is making a difference in helping the world reduce energy consumption.
