benefits of an energy audit

Have you ever wondered just how much energy your home is actually using? We might assume that our homes are airtight fortresses of energy consumption and don’t need any adjustment at all. But oftentimes, that’s not the case. Your home might be wasting much more energy than you first thought!

With an energy audit, you can know for certain where your energy consumption stands. A professional will conduct a thorough inspection to measure all the points where you’re not being as energy-efficient as you could be, and they’ll recommend strategies and solutions to fix that. Here are a few more benefits of an energy audit from the experts at Weeks Service Co!

It Gives You An Idea of How to Improve

The first step in any type of improvement is figuring out where your current baseline is at. That is, without understanding how your current situation looks, you won’t be able to figure out how to fix it. And that applies to anything, not just an energy audit.

But it also works here. An energy audit lets you know how efficient your home is at generating energy, and once you have an accurate reading in hand, you can then begin to take steps toward improving your home’s energy efficiency.

You’ll Save Money

First and foremost in the minds of homeowners who invest in an energy audit is figuring out how you’ll be able to lower your bills. And by understanding how your home is performing, you’ll be able to tailor your usage to help cut down on excess. Once you’ve adjusted your energy behavior, bills will logically begin to get cheaper.

The Home Gets More Comfortable

 After an expert performs an energy audit, you’ll know where the weak spots are in your home, so to speak. The areas that need attention will be glaringly obvious — perhaps there’s a leaky duct or a drafty window that is hurting your home’s energy efficiency?

Once you’ve fixed these things, then you’ll know what areas need more immediate attention to get your home’s comfort level back to normal.

Increases Your Home’s Resale Value 

Everyone, whether they admit it or not, is thinking about the potential of reselling their home eventually. And if your home is suffering from drastically low energy efficiency, then you might have a tough time getting someone to take a chance on your newly listed home.

But with an energy audit, that won’t be a problem. You’ll identify the trouble spots before a potential buyer can discover them, and you can nip the issue in the bud before anyone else gets a chance to notice them.
