We Show You How to Reduce Energy Costs and Guide You Through the Process!
For Homeowners and Small BusinessesLike you and me, a home or small business is a breathing thing. Typically, it inhales from the basement or where the house sits on its foundation. It exhales through the attic and roof. The more it breathes, the more it costs you for heating and air conditioning. An energy audit of your home is the same as visiting the family doctor for a checkup. The first thing the doctor checks is your blood pressure. If you have high blood pressure, the doctor is going to want to help you lower it. High airflow equals high energy costs. Home Energy Consultants specializes in identifying where air leaks into and out of your home or small business. We can help you shrink energy costs and make yours a healthier building.

Everyone is experiencing the pain of high energy costs. And even after we pay those bills we’re still not comfortable. Are you spending more to heat or cool your home and enjoying it less? Want to do something about it?
An energy audit for your home is the same as a visit to your doctor for a physical--except we make house calls!
When the doctor checks your blood pressure it’s the first sign if anything is wrong with your body. In a house we check the airflow. What blood pressure is to the body, airflow is for the home. If you have high airflow, like high blood pressure, you’ve got problems. For a house its high costs for heating and cooling.
A home energy audit is the building science approach toward calculating what the airflow should be and measuring what it actually is.
The home energy audit will help you to identify ways to reduce building airflow. If you can reduce airflow you lower your energy costs!
The energy audit is also about health and safety; making sure combustion appliances are working properly as well as checking to see that smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed and working.
