"Saving home energy to provide a greener future"

"Why do I need an energy audit performed on my home?"

How do you know if you need a new HVAC system, windows or doors or insulation?  How do you find out what your home can best benefit from?  What will give you the best return on your investment?  GET AN ENERGY AUDIT!

Hiring Greener Visions to provide you with a clear path to getting your home more efficient can save you from wasting money up front, increase your return on investment down the road, and solve those comfort issues you have been living with since you moved in.  We work for you.

Several people may spend large amounts of money on high efficiency HVAC systems only to see their utility bills remain about the same.  They installed a very efficient system on a very inefficient home.  Similarly, just adding insulation to your attic does very little if there are air pathways that allow home air to find its way out.  Greener Visions will find these characteristics and tailor a path for you to follow to make sure the money you spend on energy efficiency is not wasted.

An energy audit is an in-depth, unobstrusive survey of your home.  It is very thorough and looks at all the components of the home.  We look at all parts of the home, but really look at how they all work together; the house as a system.

A typical energy audit includes an initial interview to determine the homeowner's motivation, goals and budget.  It will include a blower door test to measure how much air leakage is coming into the home and where it is coming from.  It includes an infrared scan to identify issues in the building shell or insulation of the home.  Comfort issues are directly related to efficiency issues.

At Greener Visions, we are certified HERS Raters by the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET).
