Energy
prices are rising. The outlook is for energy costs to rise
even more. We take pride in helping homeowners and businesses
discover how they can recover lost heating, cooling and wasted
electricity through energy evaluation. Our thermal cameras
can see where heated or cooled air is escaping. Our blower
doors can locate areas where conditioned air is escaping through
leaks and drafts. Home Inspector-Consultants can then make
recommendations on how to remediate problems that may exist.
Thermal
imaging can locate the sources of lost heat by "seeing"
temperature variations. These areas may be the result of missing
or compacted insulation. Thermal imaging can also locate areas
of moisture. Moisture in a structure can compromise integrity
and nurture mold. Thermal imaging can also help locate roof
leaks without physical disassembly of the structure.
Blower
Doors work by testing the airtighness of a structure.
They can show us where conditioned air is leaking out of your
home or business. A blower door slightly raises or lowers
the air pressure of your structure above or below the pressure
that is outside forcing air to "find" ways in or
out. A themal camera then directs us to where the air is leaking
allowing us to suggest corrective actions.
Most people want to lower their utility costs.
Did you know that on average 23% of the electricity we pay
for we don't use? Did you know that power surges, spikes,
and lightning strikes cost Americans over $1 Billion dollars
every year? We can perform a simple test of your electrical
system to tell you how efficiently your house uses electricity.
Fix housing first: We can help , showing you the
most cost effective way to improve and reduce energy costs,
by helping identify problems , we can advise to the most cost
effective solutions.
All told, a simple inspection along with corrective actions
can reduce your energy costs for the life of your home saving
you thousands. We cannot urge you strong enough to get this
evaluation before the costs of electricity and gas go through
the roof.
