Weatherization and Energy Audits

Homes function as the sum of their parts, including the building envelope or shell of a house, the HVAC equipment, ventilation fans, and the occupants.  When there is a breakdown in the interaction of these components the following can result:

• High energy bills
• Uneven temperatures from room-to-room
• Drafts
• Moisture, mold and mildew
• Poor indoor air quailty
• Premature deterioration of a homes structure

An energy audit can pin-point the sources of air and moisture infiltration into a home and offer priorities for weatherization servies.  HCTF employees are trained to perform diagnostic assessments.  View our certifications.
