"Thorough audit. However, their focus is to sell a $50,000 home sealing project. That?s crawl space to attic. Payback on energy savings? A zillion years."

"Ben did an energy analysis of my home looking for places where energy might be leaking out He did a thorough investigation of the house including a blower door test and found several places where drafts were allowing heating and cooling to escape and raise my energy bills. I was surprised by the places where air was leaking out. I wouldn't have thought of those places. One was into the crawl space under the house, another was under two French doors. Who knew a relatively well-built house would have that many leaks. No wonder my electricity and gas bills were higher than I'd like."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

Not all homes are suited for solar panel systems. Older roofs or those in poor condition may need repairs or replacement before solar panels can be installed. Some other factors to consider are the amount of sunlight your roof receives, the roof’s orientation and pitch, and any shading from nearby trees or buildings.

Upgrade to double-glazed glass or apply energy-efficient coatings to reduce heat loss and utility costs.

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.

An average, 400-square-foot electric heated driveways consume approximately $3 per hour in terms of electricity. The price may slightly fluctuate depending on your local energy cost. A simple formula to calculate your heated driveway’s total wattage consumption is by multiplying the square footage by 50 watts and then dividing it by 1,000 to get the kilowatt number. Multiply that with your local energy cost per hour and there you have the hourly operating cost.

The answer is a resounding yes, as dishwashers save significant water and energy compared to washing dishes by hand. The difference is so drastic in fact that those who use energy-efficient dishwashers can expect savings of over $450 per year. This is because dishwashers use less water, they wash at a higher temperature than a hand rinse, and you don’t need to rinse them after washing. New dishwashers use around 4 gallons per load, whereas washing by hand can use up to 2 gallons per minute.
