Energy Assessment

An energy assessment, or audit, is the first step in determining how much energy your home or business consumes and what measures can be taken to improve energy efficiency. An assessment will show problems that may, when corrected, save significant amounts of money over time.

Duerst Insulation Technicians will pinpoint where your home or business is losing energy. Energy assessments also determine the efficiency of heating and cooling systems. An assessment may also show ways to conserve hot water and electricity.

Through a variety of techniques and equipment that determine the energy efficiency of a structure, including blower doors, which measure the extent of leaks in the building envelope, and infrared imaging, which reveals hard-to-detect areas of air infiltration and missing insulation, an energy assessment is an important tool that will serve as a guide for homes and businesses.

Duerst Insulation Technicians can perform the assessment; however, assessments alone do not save energy. You need to implement the recommended improvements.
