How A Home Efficiency Audit Works

Energy efficiency is good for the environment, and it’s great for your budget. After a home energy efficiency inspection, it might be possible to make changes that save a significant amount of money on monthly and annual energy costs.

When Standard conducts an energy assessment, we send one of our Building Performance Institute (BPI-certified) technicians to your home. The first step is to conduct a visual inspection, make recommendations, and connect you with available incentive programs and assistance options.

Our BPI-certified auditor will conduct an energy audit using infrared scans and specialized testing methods to locate issues and provide possible solutions.

If there are safety concerns like areas with mold or moisture, high levels of carbon monoxide, or fire hazards, the auditor will document them and provide detailed recommendations. And when you’re ready, Standard will get the work done quickly and efficiently. Common projects include:

  • Air sealing
  • Installing insulation
  • Upgrading or replacing heating and cooling systems
  • Improving ventilation
  • Sealing ducts
  • Replacing hot water heaters
