A NJ home energy audit is an inspection (audit) of your home to determine how your home is performing from an energy efficient and conservation point of view. The home energy auditor will identify problems and recommend steps you can take to use energy more efficiently. The residential home energy audit will encompass many areas of the home, including heating and cooling systems, insulation, and doors and windows. Your house auditor may also use specialized tools to conduct the audit (such as an Infrared camera, blower door, and duct blaster). After the home energy audit, a report will be provided that details the recommendations for energy improvement along with the Federal incentives and NJ rebates that you may be entitled to. This program ensures that you will receive an unbiased review of habits, equipment and structure issues so you can make informed decisions as to where your conservation efforts will reap the highest returns.
