Professional energy audits can cost you $100 to $1,650—but what if you could uncover the same energy-wasting culprits for free? With just one hour this weekend, you can become your home's energy detective and start saving money immediately.
Your heating and cooling bills are probably your biggest energy expense, but sneaky air leaks and phantom power drains are quietly stealing your cash right now. Those drafty windows and door frames? They're costing you 10 to 25 percent of your heating costs. Meanwhile, devices that stay plugged in can drain up to 10 percent of your electricity bill even when you think they're "off."
Here’s what might shock you: some HVAC systems waste up to 30% of the energy they consume through leaky ductwork. The good news? The U.S. Department of Energy reports that simply sealing air leaks can save the average household 10 to 20 percent on heating and cooling bills—that's up to $166 per year!
Spending 15–20 minutes gathering the right materials will make your 60-minute energy audit much more effective.
