After your application has been approved, Weatherization begins with an extensive energy audit. The process is as follows:
We visit the home and record such information as the floor plan, square footage or exterior surfaces, insulation levels, and the condition of various heating and ventilating devices.
We perform diagnostic tests such as measuring the buildings for draftiness, checking the efficiency and safety of combustion devices, and spot-checking electrical wiring.
We interview the occupant(s) to find out how the building is used and how it performs during different times of the year.
We analyze this information and calculate the benefits and cost of possible retrofit measures. Typical measures include: installation of health and safety devices, heating system efficiency testing, infiltration work to reduce air leakage and insulation to reduce loss of heat to the outside. In some cases we may need to have the owner make certain repairs or improvements that would allow us to do our work thoroughly and protect the measures that we install. In most cases we can save 20 to 30% or more on fuel bills.
Several weeks later (after an appointment has been set up with you) an experienced crew will come to your home to install the measures.
