ENERGY
AUDITS & EFFICIENCY
Our Comprehensive Energy Audit uses the latest techniques of building science to study many of the systems in your home. Every Energy Audit includes the following:
- We study the windows and doors to identify air leaks (coming in or
going out) which reduce heating and cooling efficiency.
- We check each room individually
for overall efficiency and comfort. Temperature readings are taken in each
room.
- We check your combustion systems (heat and hot water) for proper
efficiency and safety.
- We measure the insulation levels in your attic.
- We use infrared camera studies to determine where air leaks are occurring
and to evaluate the insulation levels in your walls.
- We use a “blower
door” to determine your home’s air changes per hour and make suggestions
regarding indoor air quality.
- We give you suggestions to reduce your
electricity consumption
When the audit is complete, we identify areas of improvement that will
help you reduce energy costs and be more comfortable in your home.
“Our kitchen and family room were cool and drafty
in the winter. Now we have turned the heat down because your energy efficiency
work has made the rooms a pleasure to be in.” — Craig and Salome Prickett
"It was a very lucky day for me when a neighbor recommended Tom Wells to me! A couple of years ago I had potentially serious water damage problem in the foundation of my house. Tom fixed the problem expeditiously and expertly. This spring Tom re-insulated my crawl space and added insulation in my fireplace (which I don’t use) and under the patio door, where there was none at all. What a difference that made when the cold weather hit us!
This fall I had the house re-sided. The contractor who did the work knew Tom and told me that ANY work Tom did was done perfectly. He’s right!
I can highly recommend Tom Wells. He is genuinely interested in making his customers’ homes more energy-free and in helping the environment. He is also honest, punctual, and cleans up any mess he makes. That’s a winning combination for anyone who is looking for the expertise Tom has to offer!"
