ENERGY AUDIT SERVICES AND WEATHERIZATION PROGRAMS

An Energy Audit is your first step toward increased energy efficiency of your home.   An audit will show you problems that may, when corrected, save you a significant amount of money over time.

Energy Audits typically take 2 to 3 hours to complete.  During the course of the audit your home’s insulation will be inspected, along with the heating system and thermal envelope.

During an Energy Audit, diagnostic tools are used to perform certain tests:
Picture
Blower Door Test   -        Depressurizes the building to locate and measure air leaks.

Heating System Test   -       Tests the combustion efficiency of your furnace or boiler.
Ventilation Fan Metering  - Measures the flow rate of ventilation fans.
Duct Leakage
Infrared Camera  -              Helps to discover air leaks, heat loss, and moisture problems.
Carbon Monoxide Levels  - Verify CO levels are within safe levels at all combustion devices

After inspection and testing, a detailed written report of findings will be provided.  The report will include an itemized list of recommended work along with estimated costs to improve the efficiency of your home.
