FAQs about Energy Assessments

A comprehensive evaluation of several of your home’s components. We look at your appliances, windows, HVAC systems, and existing insulation. Findings are presented in a report, along with recommendations. We provide Instant Saving Measures during the appointment, where eligible, including:

No. As a home performance contractor, we provide both the Energy assessment and Spray Foam Insulation services to our customers.

No. Existing conditions need to be evaluated first by an energy specialist. Scheduling depends on the scope of work and amount of time it takes to complete the job. Barriers like mold, asbestos, vermiculite, and gas leaks prevent moving forward.

Cellulose insulation is basically shredded paper with an added fire retardant that also acts as a rodent repellent. It also offers soundproofing benefits. A machine blows the material through a hose, which the installer uses to fill attic spaces and densely pack walls or cavities. This blocks heat from escaping through the frame of the building. Fiberglass is made up of layers of tiny glass fibers and comes in the form of batts or rolls. It is then cut to fit into place. Air gets trapped between the fibers, which slows heat movement.
