Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this home energy audit calculator?
This calculator provides a solid estimate based on national averages and your home characteristics. For a precise assessment, hire a certified energy auditor who will use specialized equipment like blower door tests and thermal imaging.
What is a good home energy efficiency score?
A score of 80-100 indicates an efficient home with modern insulation, windows, and HVAC. Scores of 60-79 are average, and below 60 suggests significant room for improvement through upgrades.
What is the single biggest way to reduce home energy costs?
For most homes, upgrading to a heat pump provides the largest savings (20-30% reduction). The second biggest impact is improving insulation and sealing air leaks, especially in homes built before 2000.
