What is a Home Performance with ENERGY STAR assessment/audit?
The assessment is the first step towards improving a home’s efficiency and reducing energy bills. During a basic assessment, the BPI accredited contractor will perform:
The assessment can also include a blower door test, which measures and located air leakage in your house. Shamrock Inc will then evaluate the results and explain to you what improvements can be made, as well as the cost of making the improvements.
How much does it cost to have a Home Performance assessment done?
The cost of the assessment varies from contractor to contractor. Contractors may charge different fees for services they provide, including the home assessment. Please discuss pricing with each contractor prior to having the home assessment completed. It is generally accepted practice to contact several contractors before selecting one. New Jersey's Clean Energy Program does not warrant the products or services of participating contractors.
What kind of report should I expect to get after the assessment?
Once the assessment is completed, Shamrock Inc will provide you with a report including information about the existing conditions of your home as well as recommendations to make your home more energy efficient.
How long after my home assessment should I get my report?
Shamrock Inc should be able to provide your home assessment report within a few weeks of performing the assessment.
