"If I could leave zero stars, I would. My solar system has never been up and running properly, and SC Solar has done nothing to help. After paying over $65,000 for a system that is now essentially worthless, I feel completely scammed. All the company needed to do was remove and reinstall the panels after I had my roof replaced. Instead, they left exposed wires, creating a major fire hazard. Their negligence has now led to severe roof leaks and damages that total over $100,000 ? and they still won?t come back to fix the mess they created. SC Solar claims to pride themselves on their work, but in reality, they are fraudulent, unresponsive, and completely unprofessional. I?ve been left with nothing but financial stress, safety concerns, and a broken system. Avoid this company at all costs."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

Insulation is measured by R-value, which is the measure of a material's ability to resist heat transfer. The higher the number, the better the insulation. When installing insulation yourself, you need to determine the optimal R-value you need to keep your home warm in the wintertime, cool in the heat of summer, and energy-efficient all year long. Each inch of insulation provides between a 3 and an 8 R-value. The climate where you live plays a major role in what R-value you need and the price tag you might see in your insulation installation.

Typically, triple-pane windows made with krypton gas filling are the most energy efficient. A window’s frame, glass, design, and installation all affect its energy efficiency. These windows, in particular, are designed highly effectively in terms of their ability to insulate.

Electric bills tend to be lower in spring and fall because people use less electricity during these seasons. Milder temperatures allow for less use of heating and cooling, unlike during winter and summer, which usually bring more extreme temperatures.

Blower door tests are measured in a few different ways, but the most popular are air changes per hour (ACH) and cubic feet of air (CFM) moving through the house per hour. A good ACH score is less than 2ACH, but 1ACH is better. This means the house experiences a total air change within 60 minutes (for 1ACH). For 2ACH, there’s a complete change every 30 minutes, and so on. CFM scores are similar in that a lower score means less air change, and therefore less leakage.

Some types of electric fireplaces use more electricity than others. Models that produce 1,500 watts will have more of an effect on your heating bill than 750-watt models. 

Electric fireplaces use an average of $1.85 of electricity every eight hours. These minimal operational costs aren’t likely to make a big difference in your electric bill—unless you’re using it as a primary heating source for your home and it’s running most of the time.
