Energy Audits
Our certified technicians utilize sophisticated equipment and techniques to conduct state-of-the-art audits that analyze a building’s performance. Based on the information they receive, they can present solutions that reduce energy usage, lower operating costs, and improve quality of life. See Efficiency Vermont for more information. See Green Energy Times for an article featuring our Energy Division.
Our Building Performance Institute-certified audits include:
- Blower door tests and analysis
- Combustion appliance inspection and analysis of performance regarding proper function, efficiency, health, and safety
- Combustion Appliance Zone (CAZ) worst-case depressurization testing for health and safety
- Gas line inspection for leaks
- Thermal building scans
- Insulation inspection and evaluation
- Electrical appliance inspection and evaluation regarding energy efficiency
- Inspection and diagnosis of air leakage, moisture infiltration, thermal loss, and air quality problems
- Carbon monoxide level testing and problem diagnosis
- Ice dam build-up diagnosis on roofs
- Window and door performance evaluation
- Eligibility for Efficiency Vermont incentives and rebates for home performance improvement
Once the audit is completed we review our findings with you and present potential remediation options.
We help you access available incentives and rebates, and at your request, will prepare an estimate for further remedial work to the extent that you are interested in pursuing additional savings and improvements.
