Home Energy Audit during Summer

A Home energy audit in the summer make sense

After several months of dreary weather, summer now comes with warm days. Most of the homeowners are forced to look for ways of improving their home comfort. Most of them run their air conditioning unit nonstop and have registered an increase in home energy bills. The solution to this is by improving home performance by conducting a home energy audit.

Your home is a complex system that consists of different processes. When everything works in tandem, home performance is not a bother. Once a single aspect is not doing well that is insulation, HVAC system and air sealing, then everything else in that house is affected which results to a decrease in home performance.

Therefore, a test should be conducted in order to evaluate the overall health of your home. This will uncover all issues that may be persisting without your knowledge, leading to increased energy bills.
