"Bill Box (and his wife) of American Building Science inspected a home for me in Madisonville, KY in June 2026. He came highly recommended, and his company name fits, his inspection was incredibly thorough and grounded in clear, detailed analysis. The final digital report included photos, clear descriptions, and color‑coding to show the severity of each issue, and it was easy for my agent to use when requesting repairs. Bill was kind, professional, and patient with every question. He also gave us a brief walkthrough of his inspection, pointing out items that needed attention now or in the near future. One thing I appreciated most was his honesty, he’s straightforward about the condition of the home and will tell you if the repairs may be extensive enough to reconsider the purchase. If you want a meticulous, trustworthy inspector who provides a detailed, user‑friendly report for you and your agent, I highly recommend Bill Box of American Building Science."

I’m Bob Kellum, owner of HouseMaster of Franklin, and I do the inspections myself. I’m a Navy veteran with a master’s in civil engineering, and HouseMaster has been a national brand since 1979.\n\nEvery home inspection includes thermal imaging and moisture readings at no extra charge, so I find water behind walls, under floors and in attics you’d never see on a walk-through. Buyer inspections come with the InterNACHI Buy-Back Guarantee.\n\nFor homeowners who aren’t buying or selling, I do 11-month builder warranty inspections, mold investigations with air sampling and lab results, radon testing (NRPP certified), water quality testing and sewer scopes. I don’t do repairs, so you get a straight answer instead of a sales pitch.\n\nServing Franklin, Brentwood, Spring Hill, Thompson’s Station, Bellevue, Fairview, Dickson, Burns and Bon Aqua.

"Rep. checked entire system. He found several wires not connected properly and fixed this. He also made recommendations regarding the attachment of the panels to the rood that would provide more stability and leakproofing. The representative appeared to know what he was doing - much better than others, including the representative who was engaged by the roofer (who replaced our rood due to hail damage) to disconnect/connect the panels."

Energy Efficiency Auditing FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Common warning signs of an overloaded electrical panel or meter box include frequent circuit breaker tripping, flickering or dimming lights, scorch or burn marks, and a burning scent coming from the panel. A circuit breaker trips as a protective measure to prevent overheating and potential fires. If you observe any of these signs, turn off the affected circuit breaker and move some devices to a different circuit. If the problem persists after turning the breaker back on, you should contact a professional electrician to resolve the issue.

A home energy audit costs about $420 on average, with prices ranging from $100 to $2,250 or more. The final cost depends on factors like your home's size, location, the thoroughness of the audit, and the specific tests performed. A basic Level 1 walk-through inspection typically costs between $150 and $200, while a comprehensive Level 3 audit with detailed testing and a report costs around $900. Homeowners may be able to use the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act’s Energy Efficient Home Improvement credit to cover up to $150 of the audit cost.

Costs for common individual tests include:

  • Blower door test: $350

  • Duct testing: $100

  • HERS test: $375

  • HERS certification: $200

  • Infrared imaging: $200

While many states require all new construction to undergo blower door tests, it’s not a requirement for existing homes. But in both cases, a blower test helps confirm that the contractor has sealed the exterior, that the type of ductwork installed is functioning properly, and that your home is as efficient as possible.

When combined with a substantial solar system, if you have enough Powerwalls, you could go off-grid and be energy independent. But remember, you'd need enough Powerwalls to power your whole home continuously because a single Powerwall can’t power large appliances for extended periods. One Powerwall is able to power an average-sized home's emergency circuits, lights, and outlets. To power large appliances, you likely need two or three Powerwalls.
