Energy 101: Home Energy Assessment

A home energy checkup helps owners determine where their house is losing energy and money - and how such problems can be corrected to make the home more energy efficient. A professional technician - often called an energy auditor - can give your home a checkup. You can also do some of the steps yourself. Items shown here include checking for leaks, examining insulation, inspecting the furnace and ductwork, performing a blower door test and using an infrared camera.

Windows and doors can also be energy efficient to help keep the cold out during winters and heat during summers. If you point the camera to your windows and doors with a simple single-pane glass, you'll find out that you loose energy there too. Great step-by-step video!
