An energy audit can save you from high utility bills. Homeowners try DIY energy audits but mistakes can be made. Know when to hire a professional.
If you have a newly constructed home, you won’t need a professional energy audit yet. If you have more safety issues like faulty electricals, it’s better to fix that before addressing energy issues.
Professionals use high-tech tools to pinpoint exact leaks. They do a visual inspection, focused on energy issues, which costs from $150 upwards; or a diagnostic inspection, using tools, which costs from $400 upwards.
Ask questions, Make sure your auditor has a professional affiliation with or training from an auditing organization and can give a written report. Your local utility company or a Pasadena Realtor may recommend auditors.
