It can be surprising to consider. Not many people are aware of how much energy a home can waste by simply not being well insulated or a draft coming in under the door.
Have you ever noticed how some homes have snow on their roofs in winter while others do not? Does yours? You might have never thought about it before, but no snow on a roof is a dead giveaway that a building is leaking heat. That means you're paying cash out of your pocket to melt the snow outside.
As we're getting closer to winter, this is something to pay attention to. Rather than pay more money by installing photovoltaics to heat the snow, you should find an accredited building analyst to give your home an energy assessment.
How do you choose a company that's right for you?
Many state and federal organizations have search engines right on their websites to help you find one. The Building Performance Institute (BPI) will allow you to search for Gold and Silver Star accredited contractors and the Better Business Bureau can help you validate a company's integrity.
Or hey, if you live in New York, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania, you could just give us a call.
