I am all about saving money. So when I saw that no matter how little I used my AC or turned off all my lights, my electricity bill was always high. I knew that I needed to get to the root of the problem. Was it because of older appliances? Are my windows or insulation not up to snuff?? Or am I doomed to always pay a high electricity bill???
I did my research and discovered that LivinLove Inspections with Scott Richardson does home energy audits. A home energy audit can be as simple as assessing your utility usage on a month to month basis, assessing your house for "easy" fixes (extra weatherstripping on the doors and windows), or going full blown, all out with thermal imaging, blowers, and high tech software to completely scrutinize your house from foundation to rooftop!
I chose middle of the road, hoping that some little adjustments around the house would help decrease my bills over time.
Scott came over and walked around my house inside and out and pointed out numerous little things I could do that should help "seal" my house and ready it for higher efficiency. He said a lot of people overlook these little things that can add up to hundreds of extra dollars wasted every year!! He then does a write up as a detailed report that outlines everything that can be adjusted or fixed to hopefully save you money over time.
Thanks to Scott, I think I am one step closer to a more efficient house. If you need an energy audit, definitely contact LivinLove Inspections! read more
