Invest in a Professional Energy Audit for Your Glendale, AZ, Home
During Arizona’s sweltering summer months, an energy-efficient home can mean the difference between relaxing in the cool indoors and feeling like you’re slow roasting in a house-sized oven. However, many older homes in Glendale lack the energy efficiency necessary to keep residents comfy and monthly energy bills low. That’s why you need to invest in a home energy audit, and FOR Energy is more than happy to help. Our local experts have seen everything that the Valley of the Sun can throw at you, and we’d be happy to use the data gathered during our energy audit to provide you with custom solutions designed to improve the thermal performance of your home.
What Does a Home Energy Audit Involve?
At FOR Energy, we embrace the idea that home energy efficiency upgrades should have a tangible effect on your comfort and a measurable impact on your monthly bills. After all, the stakes are too high in the desert to invest in one-size-fits-all energy solutions that may or may not work. So, we like to perform a thorough energy audit before recommending any professional upgrades or DIY projects.
During your home energy audit, a team of trusty Energy Pros will visit your residence and conduct a thorough assessment. We’ll look for inefficiency in your:
- Windows
- Doors
- Garage
- Ductwork
- Insulation
- HVAC system
- Water heater
- Thermostat
- Roofing
In addition to evaluating the performance of these common points of energy loss, our team will use cutting-edge technology and perform a number of tests in order to gather hard data on your home’s current energy situation. Thermal imaging technology will allow us to determine whether your insultation may be faulty, while a blower door test will indicate where cool air is leaking from your home. We’ll also check whether your house is a viable candidate for solar panel installation, which stands to provide you with abundant free energy.
When we’ve finished your home energy audit, we’ll compile all of the data we gathered into an easy-to-read report, complete with pictures of our findings. A member of our team will go over this information with you, pointing out how each area of inefficiency is specifically affecting your monthly energy bills. We’ll also recommend a variety of solutions to improve these weak points, allowing you to customize your home energy efficiency upgrades to fit into your budget.
