Embeds
Put our Longmont insulation calculators on your site
Six tools, each one block of HTML. No JavaScript to install, no account, no tracking code, and nothing to sign. Keep the credit link and the tool is yours to use for as long as you like.
What this is
Six tools, six blocks of HTML
Each block below puts one calculator on your page inside an
<iframe>, with a plain text link underneath it crediting
the tool. Paste it wherever you want the tool to appear — a blog post,
a page builder's custom-HTML block, or a hand-written template. That is the
whole installation; there is no second step.
Every tool runs entirely in your visitor's browser. Their answers are computed where they typed them and are never sent anywhere. All six are the same tools that run on this site, generated from the same code, so an embed cannot quietly fall behind the page it mirrors.
According to ENERGY STAR, recommended insulation levels for retrofitting existing wood-framed buildings in Zones 6, 5, and 4C are R-60 added to the attic if the attic is uninsulated, or R-49 if it already has 3-4 inches of insulation.
Tool 1 of 6
R-Value Target Finder
A visitor picks how deep the insulation in their attic looks and gets ENERGY STAR's recommended range for Climate Zone 5, which Longmont sits in, and the gap from where they are now. It answers "not sure" honestly rather than guessing at a gap.
It is the same tool that runs on our own R-Value Target Finder page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
Tool 2 of 6
Do I Need New Insulation? Quiz
Seven scored questions — build year, attic depth, ice dams, uneven rooms, bills, drafts, upgrade history — and a plain read on whether new insulation is worth investigating. A low score says so, without a call to action attached.
It is the same tool that runs on our own Do I Need New Insulation? Quiz page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
Tool 3 of 6
Spray Foam vs Blown-In Comparator
Three questions about priorities, known air leakage and where the insulation is going, and a straight answer on which approach fits — including the case for the option it did not pick.
It is the same tool that runs on our own Spray Foam vs Blown-In Comparator page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
Tool 4 of 6
Attic Insulation Cost Calculator
Square footage, current and target R-value, removal and air sealing, assembled into a project scope. It prints no dollar figure, because no primary source publishes an installed cost per square foot for this market and this site will not invent one.
It is the same tool that runs on our own Attic Insulation Cost Calculator page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
Tool 5 of 6
Rebate Eligibility Checker
Five questions about who bills the visitor for gas and electricity, and which of the two rebate programs their address can actually reach. It returns eligibility and never an amount.
It is the same tool that runs on our own Rebate Eligibility Checker page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
Tool 6 of 6
Insulation Payback Calculator
The quoted price, less whatever rebate the visitor reads off the program's own page, divided by what the upgrade saves in a year. The rebate field starts empty and stays empty until they fill it.
It is the same tool that runs on our own Insulation Payback Calculator page, generated from the same code, so the two cannot drift apart. When a visitor gets a result inside the frame, the link out of it carries their answers in the URL — they land on a populated tool, not an empty form.
What you are installing
No JavaScript, no tracking, no cookies
- No JavaScript for you to install. Every block above
contains zero
<script>tags, so nothing of ours runs in your page and there is no snippet to keep up to date. To be precise about what that does and does not mean: the tools themselves are JavaScript, and they run inside the frame in your visitor's browser. What you are not installing is any of our code in your page. If a visitor has scripting turned off, the frame says so and links them to the full tool instead. - No tracking, no analytics, no cookies. The frames set no cookie, load no analytics, and send no pixel. They do not know who your visitor is and do not try to find out.
- No third-party requests. The only network request an embed makes is loading itself from our server. No fonts, no stylesheets, no images, no tag managers — nothing else is fetched.
- No form and no email capture. Your visitor cannot be asked for contact details inside a frame, because there is nothing in there to ask with.
- Everything is computed in the browser. If a visitor clicks through to the full tool, their answers travel in the link they clicked and nowhere else.
Attribution
Keep the credit link intact
The attribution link is required. It is the plain
<a> tag below the frame in each block, and it must stay as
it is: a normal, crawlable link pointing at the tool's own page. Please do
not remove it, hide it with CSS, replace it with an image, move it inside
the frame, or add rel="nofollow" to it. That one link is the
entire price of the tool.
Everything else is yours to fit your layout. Change the height, wrap the block in your own container, restyle the caption's font to match your type — all fine.
A note on the heights. Each block ships a height
measured for that specific tool, at five screen widths, against the state
that renders tallest — so the result and the link back to the full tool
fit without scrolling. They differ a lot: the
R-Value Target Finder needs 880px and the
Rebate Eligibility Checker needs 3740px, because one
returns three sentences and the other returns a page. If you set your own
height, set both the height attribute and the inline
height style: a content management system that strips
style attributes would otherwise leave the frame at the 150px
HTML default.
Terms, in plain language: you may put these tools on any site you control, for free, for as long as you like, with no permission needed and no notice to us, provided the attribution link stays intact and followable. We may change or improve what is inside the frame. If the link comes out, the permission to embed comes with it.
One thing worth knowing
Two of these tools are about rebate eligibility, and eligibility is local
The eligibility checker and the payback calculator both touch the two rebate programs that serve this area, and neither prints an amount — amounts change, and a figure copied onto a third-party page is wrong the day the program revises it. Both send the reader to the program's own page for the current figure.
Eligibility itself is narrower than a mailing address. Xcel Energy provides natural gas across this service area and electric service in Lafayette, Louisville and Niwot. Efficiency Works serves residential electric customers of Longmont Power & Communications, which means Longmont addresses only — Lafayette, Louisville and Niwot are Xcel-electric and cannot access the program at all. Inside Longmont the test is narrower still, because Longmont Power & Communications does not serve every address in the city. If your audience is outside those four towns, the two rebate tools will tell them so rather than guess.
According to the Colorado Geospatial Portal's statewide Utilities Boundaries layer, the retail electric service territories recorded for Colorado place more than one electric provider inside the City of Longmont city limits: the city-owned municipal utility across most of the city, and investor-owned and cooperative utilities across the rest.
