What is it? The comprehensive Home Energy Audit has two phases. The first phase consists of Home Comfort taking inventory of, and reporting on, the current conditions in your home, including the following:
Health and safety )(Carbon Monoxide levels/Moisture problems)
Air infiltration rates
Insulation levels
Domestic hot water system
Heating system efficiency
Cooling system/central air conditioning efficiency - if applicable
Lighting
Major appliances
The second phase consists of Home Comfort developing a workscope for proposed improvements, including a cost and energy savings estimate.
How is it done? Home Comfort uses a number of diagnostic tools during the first phase of your Comprehensive Home Assessment. Some of the tools Home Comfort 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 occurs.
Your Home Assessment is customized to identify the particular needs of your home based on our analysis. The information that we gather gets entered into a computer software package to help us determine the most cost-effective measures you can take to make your home more efficient and comfortable. These steps create a report that outlines an analysis, priorities recommended home repairs and helps you determine the best improvements for your home.
