Comments on: Energy Retrofit of Older Home Will Pay Off In Lots of Ways http://www.houseexamdfw.com/energy-retrofit-of-older-home-will-pay-off-in-lots-of-ways/ Service Award-winning Home Inspectors, serving Fort Worth and the surrounding areas Wed, 04 Jan 2012 04:06:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Victor http://www.houseexamdfw.com/energy-retrofit-of-older-home-will-pay-off-in-lots-of-ways/comment-page-1/#comment-45 Victor Tue, 20 Jul 2010 02:21:05 +0000 http://www.houseexamdfw.com/?p=417#comment-45 Again, Thanks, Jeff, But here's the great thing. With our energy audit, we can not only tell the home owner where the leaks and wasted energy sources are, we can actually show them how much money we saved them as soon as we complete an energy audit. We "test in" and "test out." That means we test when we show up at the house to show the home owner where the leaks are. Then we do the seal up, weatherization and duct repairs. Afterward, we test again, and show the home owner the difference in readings on the "blower door" test ratings. It's not rocket science or magic. We do the whole show in front of the home owner, and give them the results. Again, Thanks, Jeff,

The report that you give out with energy-related upgrades and repairs is really cool. Knowing what to expect before hand and how long it would take to re-pay the expenses based on energy savings is great.. Keep up the great work...
