Home Energy Audits

A home energy audit (also called a home energy assessment) is a professional evaluation of how your home uses—and loses—energy. The goal is to identify areas where your home is wasting energy and recommend upgrades that can improve efficiency, comfort, and lower your utility bills.

What’s Included in a Home Energy Audit?  A certified technician typically:

• Inspects insulation levels in the attic, walls, and floors
• Checks for air leaks around windows, doors, ducts, and vents
• Evaluates heating and cooling systems for efficiency and condition
• Tests appliances and lighting for energy use
• May use tools like a blower door test or infrared camera to detect heat loss

In a hot climate like ours, poor insulation, leaky ducts, or an inefficient HVAC system can drive up cooling costs. A home energy audit helps you prioritize cost-effective improvements so you get the biggest savings for your investment.
