An Energy Audit is a comprehensive assessment of the energy efficiency of a structure using testing equipment. The key areas where an audit can determine how energy is being wasted include:
- Determining leakage points in the building envelope of a commercial or residential building
- Measuring the efficiency of major mechanical systems at your property including heating and air conditioning systems and water heater(s)
- Inspecting insulation and ductwork to identify weak points and air leaks
- Analyzing appliance and lighting and usage patterns
- Identifying low cost or no cost ways to reduce your energy usage
