Home Performance with Energy Star Assessment! - Davis Air ...

?

The Davis A/C Home Energy Assessment Auditor checks the heating and cooling duct system for leakage by depressurizing the system to 25-Pascal?s and then makes note of the leakage volume reading. While the duct system is inspected, the auditor locates the points of the excessive duct leakage. Davis A/C has found in some homes up to 1-ton of cooling capacity leaking into the attic.

The typical U.S. family can spend up to $2,000 or more a year on home utility bills. However, by making energy efficient improvements to a home, a homeowner may substantially lower their monthly energy costs. Drafty windows, old appliances, deficient insulation, inefficient cooling systems, or leaky heating and cooling system ducts could be wasting the home?s energy and costing excess money. An average older home can lose up to 15-percent or more of its heating and cooling capacity through low duct insulation R-values and poorly sealed duct connections alone. Repairing these building envelope deficiencies can save energy and improve the comfort and air quality in the home for all seasons of the year. ?Making these changes to a home can be a challenging and expensive process. But, by participating in the Home Performance with Energy Star program, a homeowner can work with Davis A/C who can guide them through the home energy upgrade process and help the homeowner earn up to $5000 in rebates toward the cost of eligible improvements. Rather than focusing on just individual building components, the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program takes a whole-house approach, combining improvements to maximize your home?s efficiency and performance.

Using energy analysis software to combine the results of the consultation, inspection, and testing, a specially trained and approved Davis A/C auditor will prepare a detailed report. The report will include recommended improvements, along with costs, rebates, and expected utility savings.? Other benefits, including health and comfort improvements, and increased home value will likewise be included in the report.

The Davis A/C Home Energy Assessment Auditor checks home building envelope for leakage by depressurizing the home to 50 Pascal?s and then makes note of the leakage volume reading. While the home is depressurized, the auditor locates the entry points of the excessive infiltration points of unconditioned outdoor and attic air. Davis A/C has found that the infiltration of dirty attic air, which contains insulation and rodent feces particulates, can be substantially reduced or sealed off from the interior of the home.

Potential improvements include items such as:

• Whole House Building Envelope Sealing to reduce the infiltration of unconditioned outside air or contaminated attic air.
• The addition of insulation to areas such as walls and ceilings.
• ENERGY STAR qualified Air Conditioning and Heating Systems.
• ENERGY STAR qualified HVAC Duct Systems with proper sealing and high R-values.
• Other approved measures such as Solar Screens, ENERGY STAR qualified Windows, and High Efficiency Water Heaters.

After the assessment, you will be presented with cost-effective home improvements that will provide optimum energy efficiency for your home?and give you the best value in rebates of up to $5000.00 per qualifying home. A low interest power saver loan program backed by the FHA is available to help homeowners make energy-efficient retrofits. The loans, with as low as 6.00% APR* offer the potential to lower your energy bills, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increase the value of your home, and save money?all at the same time.

Using an infrared camera, the Davis A/C Auditor locates missing building cavity insulation. The Auditor makes a determination if the corrections of the insulation deficiencies are cost-effective.

Upon the acceptance of the home improvements, Davis A/C will begin the installation of the home improvement upgrades. After completion, the Davis A/C auditor will perform a final ?test out? to ensure that all work was completed properly. Once the final test on your home is complete and all paperwork is accepted, the program will send you a Certificate of Completion officially documenting the energy efficiency improvements that were made to your home.
