A home energy audit is the first step on the path toward a more comfortable, more affordable, healthier home. Using a variety of high-tech, state-of-the-art tools, we're able to identify the key areas where your home is wasting energy, and recommend the most cost-effective improvements for maximum comfort, minimum energy bills, and optimal indoor air quality and building health and safety.

Our approach in conducting home energy audits is to take a comprehensive, whole-house assessment of the home, which distinguishes our "whole-house energy audit" from the "clipboard audits" offered by many utilities, box stores, and companies that offer a discounted audit as a means to sell products or services.

Our whole-house energy audit looks at the building envelope (which inludes all the components that make up your home's outer shell, including windows, doors, insulation levels, and the level of air leakage in between building materials); all combustion equipment including boilers, furnaces and water heaters; and the movement of air within the home to ensure that the air you and your family are breathing is fresh, healthy and safe. During the audit, we use an infrared camera to identify air leakage and deficient insulation, a blower door to measure the rate of air infiltration in the home, and a duct blaster test to determine whether your ducts are well-sealed, among other tools.

Call St. Croix Energy Solutions if you care about saving money, energy and the planet. The company recently insulated my 100-year-old farmhouse, and now it feels like someone placed a warm blanket over the whole place. I called because with my first child on the way, I was concerned about the temperature in our upstairs bedrooms. We do not have duct work upstairs and rely on baseboard electric heaters in the winter. Since St. Croix Energy completed their work, I've rarely had to turn the electric heaters on at night, and that's despite temperatures plunging to zero degrees. If your home is old, drafty, or simply costing you a bundle on heating and cooling costs each mon... (read more)
