make their homes more energy efficient.

  • Find out which improvements to make – the Tune-uP report will estimate the savings and costs of each potential upgrade;
  • Increase the comfort of your home – no drafts; better temperature control;
  • Increase the value of your home – each dollar spent on Tune-uP-recommended improvements will increase the future sales value by more than a dollar.

The Four Easy Steps Of Home Energy Audit
 
Step 1 INSPECTION
A certified energy inspector examines and measures the home and finds all opportunities for energy savings.
 
Step 2 DETAILED ANALYSIS
Specialized software produces a Report which shows savings and costs for energy efficiency improvements and provides tips on ways to save more energy and reduce your energy bills.
 
Step 3 IMPLEMENTATION
The Report provides access to a database of contractors, a direct line to an energy expert, and access to other energy products and services.
 
Step 4 FINANCING
The report lists the improvements that, when financed, will save more than they cost. It includes information on the Streamlined (k) Limited Repair Program by which homebuyers and homeowners can finance up to an additional $35,000 into their mortgage for energy-efficiency improvements identified by their home inspector.
 
 
Energy Issues And You
With ever-rising energy prices, home owners are trying to find ways to make their homes more energy efficient. Some options might include:
  • having an energy audit or inspection of their home to help pinpoint energy dollars that could be saved
  • installing energy efficient appliances - like Energy Star rated appliances
  • upgrading to energy efficient windows or installing window treatments (like solar film or shades)
  • adding solar energy technology to their homes
  • lowering/raising thermostat temperatures to use less energy
  • installing more energy efficient heating or cooling systems
  • switching to alternative fuel sources or green power sources
  • finding help from their utilities to pay their bills
 
 
A Home Energy Audit or a HERS Rating?

If you're building or designing an energy efficient home, we can help you. We are available for design review and consultation as well as performance testing of your project after construction. Rating the energy efficiency of homes has been used primarily by home builders who want to market their new homes as being energy efficient, using the "Energy Star" program, or just meeting local requirements.

A Home Energy Tune-uP, developed by CMC Energy Services ,  was designed specifically for owners of older homes who want to upgrade the energy efficiency of their homes. With a detailed Report, quick access to low-cost financing, a low price tag, and more inspectors to do the energy audits, Tune-uP is an excellent choice for owners or buyers of older homes, whereas rating remains the choice for builders of new homes.
