FYI. We just signed up for a Home Energy Audit from Green Market Solutions & PEPCO. Check back after the weekend and we'll let you know how it went.

Green Market Solutions uses advanced diagnostic equipment and the latest building science principles to determine exactly where in your home can benefit from improvements related to energy efficiency for your comfort, health and safety. Our Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® assessment is implemented exclusively by highly trained, qualified staff, who are certified by the Building Performance Institute (BPI).

For example, we will:

•Discuss problem areas and current energy usage habits.

•Conduct a series of combustion-safety tests.

•Inspect all heating and cooling equipment.

•Check for air-leakage using a blower door test.

•Use an infrared camera to identify thermal gaps.

•Plan opportunities to improve the home’s insulation, heating and cooling systems, water usage, appliances and lighting.

•Explain not just what improvements need to be made but the correct order to do them based on quickest payback period.

•Re-test to show improvements gained after upgrades are completed.

•Completed all incentive and rebate paperwork for you.

 

•Rooms that are more comfortable every day of the year.

•Significantly reduced utility bills.

•Reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

•Federal and state government incentives, rebates and financing for each energy efficiency upgrade.

•Assurance that all work is done properly by our BPI certified company
