Preparing to Work With an Energy Auditor


To ensure a successful energy audit, we will need access to information regarding your energy use. Prepare for the audit by having the following ready before your energy audit professional arrives:


  • Be able to provide a list of problems you are currently experiencing. Do you frequently have condensation on your windows? Struggling with hot or cold spots in certain rooms? Have a list of issues ready to discuss with your energy auditor.
  • Gather your electric or gas bills from the past year. We will take a look at the amount of fuel or electricity that was used during that period.
  • Prepare to discuss your home energy use and related actions. Some of the items we will go over include the number of people living in your home; number of heating/cooling zones; daytime occupancy; your typical thermostat setting during the winter and summer; and whether or not you use any energy-hungry devices such as space heaters, dehumidifiers, or medical equipment.

What Can You Expect During the Service?


Analyzing your energy consumption is just one part of the auditing process. We will also conduct a walk-through of your property and perform a series of tests and inspections.


Our energy auditors will take a look at your home’s insulation, carry out blower door testing, and carefully inspect your home to search out areas where air loss is most likely to occur. Equipment used during the audit will include combustion analyzers, infrared cameras, and surface thermometers.


We encourage homeowners to follow us during the audit to ask questions and provide greater insight into their daily energy use.

After the Audit


At the end of the audit, we will take the time to go over the results and discuss the next steps for improving energy efficiency in your home.


Depending on what we find, we may recommend:


  • Air duct insulation or sealing
  • Replacing your HVAC equipment with high-efficiency systems
  • Setting up a programmable thermostat for more efficient climate control
  • Incorporating ceiling fans to provide greater air circulation and moisture control
