Home performance upgrades can make your home more comfortable and energy efficient, along with providing many other benefits. In order to maximize how effective these upgrades are, however, an energy audit is the first step. If you’re looking to assess your energy usage in Northern Virginia or the Metro DC area, call The Fifth Fuel to help you find energy-saving solutions and increase your comfort with a professional home energy audit.
What Is an Energy Audit?
An energy audit, also known as a home energy assessment, is a comprehensive analysis of your home’s performance and its inefficiencies. The Fifth Fuel uses specialized tools during a home energy audit—like infrared cameras and a blower door test—to identify air leaks and areas with improper insulation. We will then provide you with a detailed course of action for improvements that is customized to your home’s needs.
Our home energy audit checklist involves testing for a variety of common problem areas of a home, including:
- Proper insulation
- Indoor air quality
- Air leaks
- Structural problems
