LEAKY HOUSE Home Energy Audits for residents in Chester County, PA |
|
All Houses Leak. Each House is Different. The first step to becoming more energy efficient is to find out which parts of your house or apartment "leak" the most energy. If your house is leaky you may not even know it, and you may be using much more fuel than necessary. A home energy audit will allow me to identify those areas in your house that are the leakiest, and then I can make suggestions of what the next steps should be. You have to see it (and feel the draft produced by the fan) to believe it!Finding leaks and fixing them will save you money, energy and, improve your CO2 footprint.
The test attaches a fan to the outside door. The fan pulls air out of the house to lower the inside air pressure. Air from the outside flows in through any openings. While the air is being pulled out, I can see where the leaks are occurring.
