How the Certified Home Energy Audit Works
Understand our step-by-step process for pinpointing inefficiencies and prioritizing the fastest, most cost-effective improvements.
- Diagnostic testing and measurements We perform a blower door test to 50 pascals, infrared thermography, duct leakage checks, and combustion safety measurements. Airflow, room pressure, temperature differentials, and moisture mapping reveal hidden losses. Together, these diagnostics quantify where your home wastes energy and why.
- What your actionable report includes You receive a prioritized upgrade roadmap with estimated costs, modeled savings, and simple payback timelines. Annotated photos, thermal images, and code references clarify findings. We include DIY opportunities, professional recommendations, rebate-qualifying measures, and a phased plan aligned with your budget.
- Health and safety screening We test for carbon monoxide, combustion spillage, draft strength, and gas leaks, while checking ventilation adequacy and make-up air. We flag moisture risks and potential asbestos or lead concerns for further evaluation. Recommendations safeguard indoor air quality along with energy performance improvements.

Insulation Strategies by Home Zone
Optimize insulation where it matters most, using materials and R-values tailored to your climate and construction.
Attic insulation targets
We address ventilation, baffles, and air sealing before adding insulation to prevent condensation and heat loss. Target R-values reflect your climate zone and roof design. Properly insulating and damming around can lights, hatch covers, and duct chases delivers meaningful, verified reductions in heat flow and drafts.
Walls and rim joists
Dense-pack cellulose or foam solutions reduce wall convection and gaps without major disruption. At rim joists, closed-cell foam or rigid insulation blocks thermal bridging and infiltration. We document materials, fire safety considerations, and moisture management steps to protect structure while improving comfort across entire floor levels.
Basement and crawlspace solutions
Conditioned crawlspaces, insulated foundations, and sealed vapor barriers stabilize temperatures and humidity. We detail strategies for rigid foam on walls, slab-edge insulation, and careful air sealing at penetrations. These measures reduce cold floors, limit mold risk, and support consistent performance of HVAC equipment year-round.
HVAC Performance and Right-Sizing
Ensure existing systems run efficiently and know when an upgrade or reconfiguration yields better returns.
Duct leakage testing and sealing
We measure supply and return leakage with calibrated equipment, then seal with mastic or aerosolized treatments where appropriate. Balancing dampers and proper registers improve airflow distribution. Verified duct improvements increase delivered efficiency, reduce noise, and help your system reach thermostat setpoints with fewer runtime hours.
Heat pump upgrade pathways
We model load requirements using audit data to recommend heat pump sizing, cold-climate capacities, and backup strategies. We evaluate ducted versus ductless options, refrigerant line routing, and breaker requirements. Incentive-eligible systems, matched with envelope improvements, can cut heating costs while adding efficient summer cooling.
Maintenance and optimization schedule
We create a seasonal checklist covering filter changes, coil cleaning, blower maintenance, and thermostat recalibration. We confirm airflow targets, charge balance, and sensor accuracy. Regular maintenance preserves efficiency gains, extends equipment life, and prevents small issues from undermining comfort or driving unexpected utility bill increases.
Indoor Air Quality and Comfort
Improve freshness, filtration, and humidity control while maintaining energy efficiency and healthy pressure balances.
-
We assess infiltration rates and moisture loads to design balanced ventilation using heat or energy recovery. Proper duct routing, controls, and commissioning deliver fresh air without unnecessary heat loss. This approach supports consistent humidity, odor control, and healthier indoor air while complementing air sealing improvements.
-
We evaluate sources of moisture, evaluate vapor barriers, and recommend dehumidification strategies by zone. Properly sized equipment, drainage, and ventilation prevent condensation on cool surfaces. Stable humidity improves comfort, reduces allergen growth, and protects insulation performance, ensuring energy upgrades do not create unintended moisture issues.
-
We match filter MERV ratings to your system’s static pressure capacity to avoid airflow penalties. For targeted concerns, we specify HEPA bypass units or room purifiers. Clear maintenance guidance, replacement schedules, and sensor integration keep air cleaner while preserving heating and cooling efficiency over time.
Electrification and Renewable Readiness
Prepare your home’s infrastructure for future upgrades, from heat pumps to solar and EV charging.
Utility Rebates and Tax Credits
Navigate incentives confidently to lower upfront costs and speed payback.
Pre-qualification and eligibility checks
We match your home, equipment type, and measured improvements to current utility programs and tax credits. Income-qualified options, geographic rules, and equipment ratings are verified first. This ensures recommended measures are cost-effective and incentive-ready before you commit to any installation or financing decisions.
Application, paperwork, and verification
We assemble required documentation, including model numbers, commissioning data, photos, and test results. We submit applications, track milestones, and coordinate inspections when necessary. Our process minimizes delays and maximizes approved amounts, so you receive rebates and credits promptly after verified installation and testing.
Combining incentives without conflicts
We review program stacking rules, avoiding double-dipping or eligibility conflicts. By sequencing measures correctly and documenting performance, you can layer utility rebates with federal credits. This structured approach stretches your budget further and keeps your project fully compliant with current incentive guidelines and deadlines.
