What Is an Energy Audit?
A home energy audit is an assessment that can show you where your home is losing 
energy (and how you can save money). It uses tools and techniques such as the blower door test to give you an overall picture of your home’s energy efficiency. A home energy assessment can reveal issues such as:
- Air leaks
- Insufficient amounts of insulation by conducting an insulation inspection
- Problems with combustion appliances such as gas stoves, furnaces and more
An energy audit of your home will show you problems that can potentially—when corrected—save you money over time. It’s the first step towards maximizing your home’s energy efficiency and living more comfortably in an affordable and safe matter.
What Are the Benefits of a Home Energy Audit?
In addition to ensuring you get the right type of insulation for your home, our visual energy audits in Roseville and Sacramento offer some other benefits. An audit can help:
- Discover new ways to lower your energy bills
- Identify how to make your home more comfortable year-round
- Make sure your home is properly insulated
Beyond Insulation: Improve Energy Efficiency
Many homes built before the 1980s were not required to seal electrical and plumbing penetrations to the attic and any crawl spaces. Because of that, many older homes have tiny holes, cracks and gaps through which air leaks in and out. Air leakage can cost you money in added heating and cooling costs and affects your overall comfort.
The results of our home energy audit will help our specialist create a plan to improve the energy efficiency of your home. Air sealing is the first step. Our specialists will find those unsealed sites, and we can also inspect the room over your garage or rooms with walls adjacent to the attic, as well as access points to the attic and knee wall storage areas.
All attics need ventilation to perform properly, so part of each insulation package contains provisions to ensure your soffit vents are free of debris and materials to help them stay that way. With a home energy audit in Roseville or Sacramento, CA, you can achieve this.
