Home energy audits, also referred to as home energy assessments, are often the first step in determining whether and where your home is wasting energy. Audits also provide recommendations on measures intended to save energy and improve the efficiency, comfort, and safety of your home.

Home energy audits identify how and where your home is wasting energy, which systems/appliances may be working ineffectively, and what actions you can take to make your home more efficient. Audits look comprehensively at all areas of your home, such as how well your home is insulated, the effectiveness of your heating and cooling equipment, appliance and lighting characteristics, any health and safety issues, and more.
