Energy Prices Continue to Rise
Time to invest in efficiency
|
With oil prices breaking the $100/barrel mark, it doesn't take a PHD in economics to know that our energy costs will continue to rise.
Energy conservation provides the best remedy to this situation, with the least cost to the consumer and the most benefit to the environment.
The best place to start conserving is in our homes. Collectively, our homes account for 21% of our national energy use. It is estimated that most homes could reduce their use by 20-30% through efficiency improvements. (source: EnergySavers.gov) TerraLogos Home Energy Inspections© are specifically designed to help a homeowner determine the most cost effective method for improving their home's energy efficiency. Our state of the art building diagnostic equipment works well in any season due to its high sensitivity. Start the process now and be ready for the summer cooling season.
To start your personal road to energy use
reduction and improved home efficiency by

Save Money with a Home Energy Audit

 A recent email from Apartments.com was titled, "Money Saving Tips." Their recommendations? Get a Home Energy Audit on your building to reduce costs and improve your investment.
They wrote, "...have a professional come to your rental to find any and all opportunities for saving
energy, which ultimately equals saving money." They directed readers to the Federal Energy Efficiency web site that recommended audits that include a blower door test and infrared camera inspection - just what is offered in a TerraLogos Home Energy PLUS Inspection.
