An on-site energy assessment is a comprehensive way to understand your home’s energy use. You can choose a standard home energy assessment, or you might choose a healthy home energy assessment.

Standard Home Energy Assessment

An Efficiency Excellence Network weatherization contractor (EEN) can inspect your home for energy saving opportunities and common health and safety improvements. This includes insulation, air-sealing, heating, and ventilation systems. The contractor then suggests improvements that are cost-effective.

• Find out how you can maximize energy savings and improve comfort
• Can include diagnostic tools and a blower door test to pinpoint trouble spots
• Hire an EEN contractor to qualify for weatherization incentives and low or no-interest financing

Healthy Home Energy Assessment

Households with chronic illness or health risks, such as asthma, should consider a healthy home energy assessment. There is potential to address health hazards like poor indoor air quality, mold, or pests with proper air sealing, insulation, and ventilation.

An EEN Healthy Home Certified contractor can identify issues based on the Department Of Health’s principles of healthy homes, informed by the U.S. EPA Healthy Indoor Environmental Protocols for Home Energy Upgrades.

• The best option to protect health and safety while saving energy
• A certified healthy home contractor can identify home health hazards and correct them
