An energy audit is a voluntary step taken to make a home more efficient. It helps you assess how much energy your home uses and evaluate what changes you can take to improve efficiency. During an audit, improvements are recommended and it is up to the homeowner to implement the recommendations or not.

Energy audits can not only enhance energy efficiency but lower utility costs and increase comfort inside the home.
