A home energy audit finds affordable ways to keep your home comfortable in winter and summer.

What is a Home Energy Audit?

A home energy audit is a comprehensive review of your home and its energy usage. In a comprehensive audit , we check:

• the building envelope (the roof, walls, and floors),
• the appliances,
• the heating and cooling system,
• and lighting.

The audit evaluates your home as a complete system to determine energy usage, energy losses, and identify energy savings measures.

Our recommendations provide a road map that you can follow to improve your homes energy efficiency, increase comfort, and save money by reducing energy usage.  We help you make sense of your options!

• Windows are drafty and/or have condensation
• Some rooms are too cold or too warm
• Ice-dams or icicles formed on the roof in winter
• Why is the air so dry in winter?
• Indoor air is too humid in summer
• Bathroom walls are wet after a shower
• You feel mysterious drafts of cool air in winter
• It is hard to regulate the temperature in the house
• House gets too cold before the heating system turns on in winter
