FAQs

1) What actually happens in a home energy audit?
A quality audit includes thermal imaging, a blower door test, and a walk-through of your home’s insulation, leaks, and system performance — not just quick tips. Many say they expected more detail from free audits and were disappointed.
👉 Ask us what tests are included so you know exactly what you’re getting — want to talk about that?

2) Will an audit really lower my energy bills or just cost money?
Customers want real impact — it can help cut costs if it uncovers major leaks or inefficiencies, but results vary by home and what upgrades you choose.
👉 Tell us what your last bill was and we’ll point out the changes that could make a difference — ready to share it?

3) How honest are energy auditors about what needs fixing?
A common concern is being upsold — people have seen auditors push pricey HVAC replacements instead of explaining why it’s necessary.
👉 We’ll walk you through every recommendation — want us to explain what’s really necessary first?

4) How long does it take to get results after the audit?
Clients sometimes say reports were slow or hard to understand — fast, clear deliverables matter.
👉 Ask how soon you’ll get your report and walkthrough — we’ll make sure you’re comfortable with the timeline.

5) Do you help with rebate programs and paperwork?
People mention Title 24/HERS testing and rebate compliance drives their need for audits.
👉 Let us know what rebates you’re considering so we can support you — want help with that?

6) What’s the difference between a free audit and a paid one?
Several homeowners say “free audits” felt like quick checklists with minimal value.
👉 We’ll explain what comes with a paid audit versus free utility check and what’s worth your time — want that breakdown?

7) Can you fix what the audit finds?
Many want a one-stop solution — audit plus recommendations and installation help.
👉 We can connect you with trusted installers after the audit — interested in that?

8) How do I know the auditor is really qualified?
Customers recommend asking about certifications and experience — not all auditors are equal.
👉 Ask us about our credentials and what makes an audit “good” — shall we share that?

9) What are the most common issues found in local homes?
People talk about attic leaks, insulation gaps, and duct leakage as frequent problems.
👉 Tell us what problems you’re seeing so we can tell you what we typically find — want to describe them?

10) What if I need more than an audit — like repairs or upgrades?
Customers want clarity without pressure — knowing what’s recommended vs. what’s optional.
👉 Let’s go over what upgrades make sense for you — want help prioritizing them?
