Save money as you prepare to keep things cool by maximizing your office’s energy efficiency.<\/a><\/p>\n

An energy audit is a great way to take stock of how you’re spending your energy dollars and to improve your building’s energy efficiency. Read on to learn about a few different ways that an energy audit can save you money as you prepare for the warm months ahead.<\/p>\n

#1: Take Advantage of a Professional HVAC Assessment<\/h3>\n

While you may think you know everything that goes on in your home, it’s hard to spot energy leaks without a trained eye. When you have an energy audit done, an energy professional will be able to see (literally) where things are slipping through the cracks. <\/p>\n

#2: Keep a Tight Ship<\/h3>\n

Your energy professional will take a look at your doors and windows. We’re looking for spots where your cool or warm air is slipping out and costing you money. <\/p>\n

#3 Make Sure Things Are Running Optimally<\/h3>\n

You’ll learn about whether your water heater, fireplace, ducts, furnace, and other important parts of your home are functioning as optimally as possible. <\/p>\n

#4 Nip Safety Issues in the Bud<\/h3>\n

While saving money is great, safety is most important. Your energy auditor will have an eye out for any wiring or safety issues that could cause problems down the line.<\/p>\n

#5 Take Proactive Steps<\/h3>\n

When the audit is complete, your energy professional will be able to make recommendations on how you can improve your home and lower your energy bill. <\/p>\n
