Are all energy Audits the Same?
No! Much like anyone can say that they are a 'Green Builder', any one can say they do an energy audit. You should always ask where their training comes from and what standards they are basing it on. Home energy solutions offers a variety of services and we are certified HERS Raters trained to RESNET standards and have providers that do quality control on our work. It is difficult to become a HERS Rater and requires expertice in understanding buildings and building science.
What about free Energy Audits?
We see free energy audits being offered and they may be very good. With out standards and training it's hard to say. We offer a free energy Audit which is a tier 1 type of audit. We will spend some time in your house and look for the most obvious recommendations. However, In order to get a true assesment and to accurately direct your most efficent improvements, more time and diagnostics are needed.
