ting too. Existing Home Energy Evaluations:
The energy evaluation or energy audit, is a detailed assessment of how energy efficient the home is. We look at all the different components of the home: windows, heating, hot water, insulation levels in the walls, ceiling, basement or crawlspace. We also do an air tightness test to find out how much natural air infiltration there is, and identify key areas of concern. The energy evaluation determines the amount of heat loss from each component of the house, estimates energy consumption and makes recommendations to homeowners on how to improve energy efficiency. Results are entered into an energy simulation program that generates an energy rating for the house, provides practical and cost-effective upgrade recommendations and shows the benefits of making the recommended energy upgrades to the house. Capital Home Energy provides a level of service that is unique and distinguishes us from other energy advisors. We take the extra time to deliver a detailed report and help the homeowner feel at ease. When you save energy in your home, you not only save money on your energy bills, but you are using less. When you use less, you are helping to reduce the impact we have on this planet. Some people argue ” whats the point? we’re screwed anyways, so why bother?” Well here at Capital Home Energy we believe our motto - “saving the planet one house at time” is good place to start. Besides we have to start somewhere …….right?
