Energy Audits in South Western Ontario
If you live in the Southwestern Ontario, and want to be more save money, save on electric, gas and Southwestern Ontario hydro bills while having a more energy efficient home, our energy advisors at Energy Werx can help you accomplish all of these goals. There may be energy rebates that you are able to earn without even knowing it, and we can find them for you. An incentive program (started by the Ontario Government in 2017) allows residents to quality for rebates if a clear effort is made to make their homes more energy efficient. Homes that qualify for these rebates include semi-detached, raw or mobile homes. If you are unsure about your home qualifying, Energy Werx can help give you the answer.
Through a home energy audit from an energy auditor, we can tell you which of the available audits you qualify for. Additionally, we can offer ideas of energy efficient projects you can try after the audit. There are many ways Energy Werx can find rebates for you. Some of these methods include: infrared cameras, checks for air leaks and blower door tests. We can also provide a follow up energy evaluation test after the initial test
Homes evaluated thorough these audits can receive many energy efficient upgrades. Some of these upgrades include insulation upgrades, air sealing improvements, window, door and/or skylight replacements, furnace or boiler replacements, and many more. Energy Werx ultimately strives to create a more energy efficient Southwestern Ontario, with citizens that live a more environmentally friendly lifestyle. These rebates will make those goals more affordable and attainable for these citizens.
