North Carolina - HOME ENERGY AUDITS, ASSESSMENTS & DIAGNOSTICS

HOME ENERGY AUDITS, ASSESSMENTS & DIAGNOSTICS


BPIYOUR HOME AS A SYSTEMresidential energy audits north carolina
Your home is more than a collection of windows, doors, walls and appliances – it’s a system, and it should be treated as such. You can put efficient windows on an inefficient home, and the benefits will be negligible. Likewise new AC on a leaky building will do little to lower your bills.
Whether you need to diagnose a specific problem area or get a game plan for whole house efficiency, Green Horizon has the experts you need for home energy audits and assessments.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR INVESTMENT
Without a home energy audit, you can spend time and money on expensive energy measures without fixing the real problem. Our building science experts analyze every aspect of your home’s performance – from duct sealing to HVAC systems to your building envelope – and they map out the most cost effective route to a greener, more efficient home.
A TRULY COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH
As the only Building Performance Institute certified energy auditor in the state of North Carolina, we believe that a comprehensive energy audit or assessment should indeed be comprehensive. To get a complete picture of how a building performs, every Energy Audit should include the following as standard:
  • Pre-Inspection Interview
  • Blower Door Test
  • Pressure Pan Test of Duct Work
  • InfraRed Exploration and Photography
  • Insulation / Thermal Barrier Assessment
  • Detailed Report of Findings
  • Research and Identification of Incentive Programs Available
If you are shopping around for a home energy audit, we highly recommend ensuring that all of the above items are included in the fee.
GREEN FOR ALL
High energy prices aren’t going anywhere, and with increasing concern about climate change and energy independence, more and more people are looking for greener homes. An energy audit will show you the best way to add value to your home and save you money in the process. Our energy experts can also identify relevant federal and state incentives or utility rebates for efficiency and renewable energy measures.

PROTECTING YOUR FAMILY
Indoor air quality is often impacted by the quality of your ventilation and HVAC systems. Beyond saving you money, a home energy audit can help identify unknown problem areas and potential for improving your environment.
FIXING SPECIFIC PROBLEMS
High energy bills, mold and moisture issues, drafts, poor ventilation or bad indoor air quality – any of these issues can indicate building performance problems. Whether they are caused by mistakes in design or construction; or caused by inadequate maintenance, to fix them, you first have to identify the root cause. Schedule a diagnostic assessment with one of our building forensics experts, and we'll take an in-depth look into whatever problem you're experiencing.

WHAT’S THE NEXT STEP?
Call Green Horizon or contact us online to schedule a comprehensive energy audit and/or a diagnostic assessment of a specific issue with your home or building located in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, or Greensboro area.
