What Is a Home Energy Audit?

A home energy audit is an inspection of your home to identify sources of energy waste. As most homes use half or more of their energy on climate control, this is where we focus: HVAC systems, ductwork, insulation, etc. A trained HVAC technician can identify how and where your energy is wasted and offer appropriate solutions.

Energy audits can also help you upgrade your home while taking advantage of rebate and incentive programs at the state or federal level, allowing for even more savings.

Signs You Need an Energy Audit

Not sure your home needs energy efficiency improvements? Consider whether any of these sounds familiar:

• You spend more than your neighbors on energy: Ask around and see what people around you with similar homes spend on their energy bills — the answers might shock you.
• Hot and cold zones in your home: If you have significant differences in temperatures throughout your home, you likely have poor insulation or a hidden air leak.
• Old HVAC equipment: If your cooling and heating systems are a decade old or older, it’s nearing the end of their service lives, and you’re missing out on energy efficiency improvements that newer units offer.
• Condensation on walls and windows: You could have a ventilation problem if you have excessive humidity in your home.
• Reduced comfort: Your HVAC system isn’t always the problem, but we can find the source of the issue so you can restore your comfort and reduce your energy bills.

If these signs sound familiar and you’d like to learn more about scheduling an energy audit, contact us online or call Russo Bros. & Co. at (973) 887-1334 today.

What To Expect During a Home Energy Audit

Once you schedule a home energy audit, your technician will arrive with the tools needed to evaluate your energy efficiency and areas for improvement.

Inspections will focus on key areas, such as:

• Air leak inspection and testing: Our technician will inspect and test your home for leaks that allow air and moisture in and out; that means checking your windows, doors, ductwork, etc., and recommending repair or replacement if we find any issues.
• Attic insulation inspection: Poorly insulated attics are one of the biggest culprits in energy waste, so we may recommend retrofit or reinsulation, depending on the condition of your current insulation.
• HVAC inspection: If your heating and air conditioning systems are outdated, strained, or damaged, it’s time to consider a replacement, prioritize routine maintenance, and/or upgrade to a smart thermostat.

You should mention any issues you’ve noticed that might be relevant; hot and cold spots, humid or dry rooms, draftiness, etc., as this can help us more quickly locate the source of your inefficiencies.
