Your HVAC system is one of the largest energy consumers in your home. Home Energy Rx provides comprehensive HVAC assessments and recommendations to help you maximize comfort while minimizing energy costs.
During a home energy audit, our certified building scientists evaluate your heating and cooling system for efficiency, proper sizing, duct leakage, and overall performance. We use diagnostic equipment including blower door tests and duct blaster tests to measure actual air leakage.
Leaky ducts can reduce the efficiency of your heating and cooling system by as much as 20 percent. Sealing and insulating ducts can help with common comfort problems, such as rooms that are too hot in summer or too cold in winter. It can also lower your energy bills and reduce the risk of indoor air quality problems.
An oversized or undersized HVAC system will not operate efficiently and can lead to comfort problems and premature equipment failure. Home Energy Rx uses Manual J load calculations to determine the proper size heating and cooling equipment for your home.
Home Energy Rx provides HERS (Home Energy Rating System) ratings for new construction. A HERS rating is the industry standard by which a home's energy efficiency is measured. It is also the nationally recognized system for inspecting and calculating a home's energy performance.
