What to Expect from a Home Energy Assessment

A specially trained and certified technician will conduct a Comprehensive Home Assessment, which has 2 phases.

The first phase consists of the technician taking inventory of, and reporting on, the current conditions in your home, including the following:

  • Health and safety check (carbon monoxide levels, moisture, and indoor air quality problems)
  • Overall comfort level (cold/hot spots, indoor air quality stuffiness/stale odors)
  • Air infiltration rates
  • Insulation levels
  • Heating system efficiency
  • Cooling system/central air conditioning efficiency, if applicable
  • Domestic hot water system efficiency
  • Major appliances
  • Lighting

Certified technicians use a number of diagnostic tools during the first phase of your Comprehensive Home Assessment. Some of the tools the they will use are:

  • Carbon Monoxide (CO) Analyzer: important health and safety tool
  • Blower Door: measures the air tightness of a home and aids in identifying areas where air leakage is occurring

The second phase consists of contacting a participating contractor to receive pricing on the proposed improvement work.
