A Home Energy Assessment is a process that evaluates how energy is used in a home. It identifies areas where energy is wasted and suggests improvements to enhance efficiency. This assessment typically includes checking insulation, heating and cooling systems, and appliances to determine their energy consumption. During the assessment, a professional may use tools like blower doors and thermal cameras to find air leaks and heat loss. Homeowners receive a report detailing findings and recommendations, which can lead to lower energy bills and a more comfortable living environment.
