What We Do

What We Do
In order to determine the best solution for you and your home, Pro Energy will take you through a 2-step process.
Step 1: A Comprehensive Energy Audit
Many people cringe at the mere mention of the word “audit”. Don’t worry, we’re not the IRS and this kind of audit is a good thing.
Pro Energy audits go into great detail. Your Pro Energy Consultant will do a room-by-room examination of your residence.
How The Pro Energy Exam Works
Your Pro Energy Consultant will use thermography—or infrared scanning—to detect thermal defects and air leakage in your home.
Using an infrared camera, we measure surface temperatures. These readings make images called thermograms. From these thermograms, we can determine a number of things, like whether insulation has been installed correctly or is missing. Our thermographic scans can also be used on electrical systems to identify abnormally “hot” components or connections. And they can find inefficiencies in your ducting and heating and cooling systems.
Thermographic scans are also commonly used with a blower door test. The blower door is simply a big fan that helps change the pressure in your home and helps exaggerate air leaking through defects in the home’s walls. Such air leaks appear as black streaks in the infrared camera's viewfinder.
Step 2: Your Consultation
At Pro Energy, we don’t just point out your home’s problems and then wish you good luck. After your audit, we will sit down with you. Together, we’ll provide a detailed report and review the results of your audit. We’ll also analyze your current and previous utility bills and interview you regarding your personal experiences (drafty rooms, rooms that are hard to keep cool, etc.)
With all this, we’ll explain to you where your home is operating inefficiently. We’ll describe your options for remedy and we’ll help you put together a plan based upon your budget, goals and timeline.
