Here are some common questions and answers from homeowners about energy audits:

Q: What is an energy audit and why do I need one?
A: An energy audit is an evaluation of the amount of energy your home consumes versus the cost of that energy. Many property owners are paying way too much to heat, cool and run their homes. An energy audit can save the average home owner 30% of their yearly energy bill. This includes gas, electricity, heating oil, everything.

Q: So if I got an energy audit for my business or house I could potentially save 30% off my average energy bill each year?
A: Sure and in most cases that's just dealing with the easy things like using energy efficient light bulbs, re-caulking your windows and doors, upgrading the insulation in your buildings and being a little smarter about how you use the fuel that creates energy in your properties.

Q: What other things can I do to save money?
A: The items I just described are considered the ": low hanging fruit ": of energy savings. If you have an older home, even one as young as 40 years old, you would most likely benefit from replacing your windows, adding insulation around your foundation, converting your fuel source from say electricity to natural gas or adding renewable energy sources such as solar or wind power to your energy fuel source.

Q: That sounds expensive?
A: It can be expensive, however there are many sources of help for home owners looking to conserve energy especially if you want to shift from non-renewable energy such at fossil fuels such as oil and gas to renewable energy such as wind turbines, solar panels and Geo-thermal energy. Visit www.dsireusa.org, look up Illinois and you'll see dozens of state and federal programs created to help you save money while reducing your carbon footprint. Many of these incentives come back to you in the form of tax credits. So while you have to make the financial investment up front, you can recoup your investment in a little as a couple of years.

Q: I suppose the payback depends on the type of energy program you set up for your home and how in-depth you choose to go.
A: Right. Most property owners work with the auditor to set up short and long range plans for their needs. Nearly everybody performs the basic changes stated above while making long term plans for additional work when time and money allow.

Q: Who performs energy audits and what does it cost?
A: A residential, level 1, non-diagnostic audit usually costs around $200 - $300 and will get you enough information to address up to 80% of your energy issues. We have priced ours at $199.

Q: Got it. So what do I get at the end of a Level 1 Audit?
A: You will receive a 15 to 25 page report analyzing your current energy consumption, the cost of that consumption and a list of recommendations including pricing, savings and pay back periods associated with that work. A good auditor will sit down with you and go over the report so you can ask questions and fully understand it.
