Home Energy Audit
Home energy audits, also referred to as home energy assessments, are often the first step in determining whether and where your home is wasting energy. Audits also provide recommendations on measures intended to save energy and improve the efficiency, comfort, and safety of your home.
Home Audit Benefits
-
Energy Usage. Audits help you understand how much energy your home is using, and which products or systems (such as heating and cooling systems) are using the most.
-
Unknown Issues. Audits can uncover hidden problems (such as leaky air ducts or uninsulated walls) that may be making your home less efficient and increasing your utility bills.
-
Health and Safety. Audits can uncover potential health and safety concerns (such as improper ventilation, which may cause mold and mildew growth and degrade air quality).
-
Opportunities. Once an audit is complete, you will receive a prioritized list of potential improvements to help determine where your home improvement dollars would be best spent.
-
Savings and Comfort. Acting on audit recommendations will not only help you save on your utility bills but also increase the comfort of your home by better moderating the temperature, eliminating drafts, and improving air quality.
Blower Door Test
A blower door is a machine used to measure the air-tightness of buildings. It can also be used to measure airflow between building zones, to test duct work air-tightness and to help physically locate air leakage sites.
