Infrared Home Energy Assessments

With the rising cost of energy, many people are turning to home energy assessment to maximize the efficiency of their home as well as identifying any problem or potential problem areas.

• Is your home cold and drafty?
• Are some rooms colder than others?
• Are your energy bills higher than you think they should be?
• Does your home smell musty?
• Are you planning renovations?
• Have you just completed renovations?

A home energy assessment is the first step to assess how much energy your home consumes and to evaluate what measures you can take to make your home more energy efficient. An infrared inspection will show you problems that may, when corrected, save you significant amounts of money over time. During the assessment, you can pinpoint where your house is losing energy. Assessments also determine the efficiency of your home's heating and cooling systems. Infrared pictures will show you thing not visible to the naked eye.
