ecoENERGY Retrofit Program Energy Assessments – Service for any home owner (single or multi)

The ecoENERGY Retrofit Program energy assessments last about two hours and include a thorough examination of everything to do with energy in the home–insulation levels, hot water systems, toilets, windows and doors, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, and air tightness. We perform a blower door test which measures the amount of air leakage in your home, clearly identifying where draftproofing needs to be done. After you have completed an energy assessment, you can then begin to renovate your home and receive grants for the work completed, as per the program guidelines.  Once you are finished renovating, you must have us come back for a final assessment, and after that you will receive grants for the work completed. Eligible homeowners may qualify for non-taxable grants up to $5,000. Call our office for full details.

Energy assessments are a great way to get independent advice about which home improvements give you the best bang for your energy buck. With a decade of experience and a team of local Certified Energy Advisors, CanSpec is known as the energy efficiency expert of the North.
