Saving Energy…the new status symbol
As a home owner, you have legitimate questions that need answering:
1.) What is an Home Energy Assessment?
Answer: It is a top to bottom inspection of your conditioned space (the area that you are trying to heat or cool), an air leakage test utilizing a blower door, safety tests that include carbon monoxide (CO), spillage, draft, gas leak, visual inspections, & indoor air quality (IAQ) concerns. Using your collected volume, the building aiflow standard (BAS) and building tightness limits (BTL) are then verified to ensure your heath & safety and the durability of your largest investment, your home. Occupational behavior of the use of lighting and appliances, in addition to the review of 12 months of utility usage are then applied to a DOE approved computer modeling software. This in turn, creates an in-depth Home Energy Report which will show you, as the home owner, the best improvements that will increase your comfort and lower your utility bills. This report should stay with the house and has proven to increase value and produce quicker home sales throughout the nation.
