Creative Conservation Co. Inc. was founded March 18, 1981 by Tom and Lynda Sprouse. Prior to starting Creative Conservation, Mr. Sprouse held the position of sales manager for a leading insulation company. This was during a time when the economy had reached a lull and energy costs skyrocketed. With declining consumer confidence, inflated prices, and low housing starts, economic development had spiraled downward. By 1983, unemployment would reach 9.6 %, which is four times the rate in 1999. The name Creative Conservation is a reflection of these times. With a struggling economy and high-energy costs, Mr. Sprouse felt that there was a need for innovative or creative ways to conserve energy.
