"The work was done professionally and done on schedule. Raymond the manager gave me all the information I needed before the start of the project . The communication was timely and valuable throughout the project. The main reason I hired Excellent Electric is because Raymond also made recommendations that help to reduce the cost of materials and labor. I interviewed three other companies and all gave me competitive prices, but the recommendations Raymond gave me, set Excellent Electric above the three other companies I interviewed. I will hire Excellent Electric again and recommend this company."

"Besides Solar work that they completed at my house, CEB also installed 2 ceiling fans inside house, and removed all interior carpet and put 2'x2' Travertine ties w the thinset & grout, and painted the entire interior of house. They took care of the project clean-up as if it were their house. I researched what CEB can do, and with their Class "B" Contractor license they can build a house from the ground up, and do Home Improvement projects, and pull any required permits from the City. These guys are legit. You will be a satisfied customer working with California Energy Builders."

"We purchased the home energy audit with the understanding that we would be receiving a more extensive analysis of our home energy usage along with possible solutions. Ultimately, the process was more about a presentation for solar panels that anything else, which was not what we were looking for when we purchased the offer. Richard was very professional and thorough in his presentation and presented options regarding areas to save in terms of energy usage but those areas were not as thoroughly explored as the solar discussion. Green Source Energy should be more direct about what the Home Energy Audit entails so buyers can make an informed decision."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

After you receive your audit and report, review the findings and determine which of the prescribed changes you want to make to improve your home’s energy efficiency. Start by contacting the type of professionals recommended by the auditor who can help you remedy the issues discovered during the audit. Prioritize the projects by urgency, importance, and budget. Then, gather estimates from several professionals, remembering to verify any necessary licensing and experience information.

Leaving vents open but closing doors in unused rooms will probably not save money on your energy bill. Closed doors prevent the natural flow of air throughout the home, which could reduce the efficiency of the overall HVAC system. They could also restrict airflow into and through the return vents, making the HVAC system less efficient.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.

To find a reputable home energy auditor, start by researching local companies that offer the service and check their reviews, methods, and certifications. The most reputable professionals are often Home Energy Professional (HEP)-certified by the Building Performance Institute (BPI). You can also consult the Department of Energy’s certified list of energy auditors or use a state licensing tool to review local guidelines and ensure you are hiring a certified professional for your area.

R-value is calculated by dividing the thickness of an insulation material by its thermal conductivity. The material's composition and density influence thermal conductivity. Materials with lower conductivity values provide better insulation. The higher the R-value, the better the material is at insulating, helping homeowners select insulation that meets the energy needs of their climate and home layout.
