Energy Assessments

​​​At Green Homeowners United, our certified Energy Assessors use specialized tools and Department of Energy-approved methods to identify where your home is losing energy and what you can do to improve it. Whether you live in an older home or a newer build, a professional home energy assessment is the first step toward smarter upgrades, lower energy bills, and year-round comfort.

​

Our assessments measure:

  • Overall energy usage and areas for efficiency improvements
    Heat loss and insulation performance in walls, attics, and basements

  • Air leakage and draft detection through a professional blower door test

  • Combustion safety testing for furnaces, water heaters, and gas appliances

  • Solar panel feasibility based on your home’s structure and orientation
     

After the assessment, you’ll receive:

  • A personalized, detailed report with energy-saving recommendations

  • A roadmap for rebates, tax credits, and federal incentives you may qualify for

  • Tips to improve comfort, reduce drafts, and cut your carbon footprint

Shout-out to City of Milwaukee's Environmental Collaboration Office (ECO) for creating a new video promoting the benefits of getting an energy assessment of your home, featuring both green homeowner Steve & Ann O'Connell as well as Green Homeowners United's Kevin Kane!

These recommendations are designed to help you:

  • Lower your utility bills

  • Reduce cold spots and drafts

  • Boost comfort throughout your home

  • Increase your home’s resale value by an average of 2.7%
    or $4,000

  • Qualify for thousands in rebates and incentives
