For home energy problems: You count on the 3 Cs

• Comprehensive. Dr. Energy Saver's whole-house approach ensures that every element of energy use, energy waste and potential energy savings is evaluated. Fuel-hungry furnace? Leaky ducts? Inefficient lighting? Inadequate insulation? Poorly performing water heater? Whatever the problem, Dr. Energy Saver's comprehensive energy audit is certain to uncover it and offer the best prescription for energy savings. We leave no stone unturned in our quest for optimum energy performance and savings.
• Customized. Every house has a unique energy profile, and every family has distinct priorities in terms of energy savings, comfort, convenience, "green" value and improved resale value. When you work with Dr. Energy Saver, you're sure to get a program of energy improvements that's customized to fit your needs.
• Cost-effective. It's not easy to weigh the pros and cons of different energy-saving opportunities. "What do I do first?" and "How quickly will my energy savings pay for this energy upgrade?" are common questions. Dr. Energy Saver has the experience and expertise to prioritize the energy improvements recommended for your house. You can feel confident in how your investment in energy savings will pay off in the months and years ahead.

Typical Energy Upgrades

What are some typical energy upgrades that homeowners select based on recommendations from Dr. Energy Saver? Good question. Of course, every household will have its own unique energy profile, thanks not only to construction characteristics but also to occupant behavior and the age and condition of appliances, HVAC equipment and other energy-consuming devices. But it's a pretty sure bet that some of the high-priority upgrades will focus on heating and cooling, which typically accounts for almost half of home energy expenses. The energy improvements that impact heating and cooling expenses include air sealing, insulation, radiant barrier, duct sealing, HVAC system upgrades and windows and doors.

Sometimes a "typical" energy upgrade depends on the condition of an existing appliance or device. For example, a water heater that's more than 6 or 7 years old is likely to be very inefficient compared to new Energy Star models available today. And if you're interested in reducing water-heating expenses (which can account for 15% of total energy expenses), it makes sense to replace standard showerheads and sink aerators with eco-friendly versions that use much less hot water without compromising washing or rinsing effectiveness.

A Comprehensive Customized Prescription

Dr. Energy Saver will develop a comprehensive customized prescription for energy saving upgrades and repairs specific to your home and budget.

Some of the smart solutions include, first and foremost- sealing air leaks and upgrading insulation. Other typical solutions are:

• sealing and modifications to your ductwork,
• improving your heating and cooling system,
• improving your water heating equipment,
• efficient lighting upgrades, and
• water conservation measures.

 
These home energy improvements will save you money on your electricity and fuel bills and make your home more comfortable.
