Installing the blower door during a home performance test
Focus on Energy highly recommends a Home Performance Test (or Energy Audit for businesses) for anyone serious about improving their energy efficiency and ensuring the safety of their home.
Home Performance Testing:
- Reveals problem areas in your home
- Lets you know which improvements will result in the greatest energy savings – helping you achieve maximum returns in savings and comfort
- Provides a real-number “yardstick” to measure the effectiveness of any improvements you make (which you can use to make sure the jobs are done right)
- Is required to be eligible to receive many of the Focus on Energy rewards for energy efficiency
- Can alert you to potential safety hazards in your home
Testing for carbon monoxide backdrafting
Many existing homes and commercial buildings are full of “energy vampires” – air leaks, inadequate insulation and inefficient equipment. Until you take measures to stop them, they’ll just keep draining energy right out the door – and draining cash out of your pocket.
Your home performance test can pay for itself by showing you your best value options. When we perform an Energy Rating on your home or other building, we’ll be able to reveal exactly where and how you’re losing out to the “vampires” – and how to vanquish them.
You’ll get customized recommendations for the home improvements that will bring you the most value in terms of financial payback, comfort and safety. The Energy Performance Report we provide will become your trusted road guide, helping you achieve maximum returns in savings and comfort.
We’ll even alert you to potential hazards in your home such as gas leaks and carbon monoxide backdrafting.
Your Home Performance with Energy Star evaluation can also pay for itself many times over by making you eligible for financial incentives through Focus on Energy. An Energy Star test is required as proof of effectiveness in order to qualify for financial incentives through Focus on Energy for insulation and a number of other improvements.
