Video Testimonials

"Green Home was prompt, personable, and professional. They spent several hours gathering information from me, from the blower door test and the thermal imaging camera. I received an 8 pg report with photos of problem areas, suggestions for savings, estimated cost and return on investment (in terms of time and cost). I was also provided a unit to test for indoor air quality and, after 4 days of testing, given a detailed report about VOCs, carbon dioxide and particulates in my home along with remedies. Knowing that the employees are HERS raters and BPI certified was reassuring especially since Green Home's price was the lowest of the three quotes given."

Professional Home Energy Audits

Professional energy audits generally go into great detail. Green Home energy auditors do a room-by-room examination of the residence, as well as a thorough examination of past utility bills.

Our professional energy audits will include a blower door test and will also include a thermographic scan.

Preparing for an Energy Audit

Before the energy auditor visits your house, make a list of any existing problems such as condensation and uncomfortable or drafty rooms. Have copies or a summary of the home's yearly energy bills. (Your utility can get these for you.) A Green Home Energy Audit uses this information to establish what to look for during the audit. The auditor first examines the outside of the home to determine the size of the house and its features (i.e., wall area, number and size of windows). The auditor then will analyze the residents' behavior:

* Is anyone home during working hours?
* What is the average thermostat setting for summer and winter?
* How many people live here?
* Is every room in use?

Your answers may help uncover some simple ways to reduce your household's energy consumption. Walk through your home with the auditors as they work, and ask questions. They may use equipment to detect sources of energy loss, such as blower doors, infrared cameras, furnace efficiency meters, and surface thermometers.

Thermostat Wars

I am sure it is not just our family, but no matter what season it is, we seem to be in a constant battle for control of the thermostat. The kids usually think it is too hot, probably because they are so active, so they are always turning the temp down. The wife is either too warm or too hot, and I like it a little warmer than the kids. So whenever any one of us walks by the thermostat, the setting gets chang… Continue
