Home Energy Assessment (Audit)  A Home Energy Assessment 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 10-15 page report that outlines an analysis, prioritized recommended home repairs and helps you determine the best improvements for your home.

"We could not be more pleased with our decision to have Home Comfort help us make energy improvements to our home.  And the results have been remarkable.  We saw a difference in our heating bill right away - a striking difference, above what we'd hoped.  We're not at all worried about this winter's coming bills!"
