Residential Energy Audits

High energy bills?

Did you know the average home has leaks that, taken together, are the size of a basketball? It's like leaving a window open in winter! By sealing these cracks and adding insulation, you significantly cut down on the energy used to heat and cool your home, and on your energy bills, while making your home more comfortable.

Sign Up for an Energy Audit

NYSERDA’s Residential Home Energy Audit program provides home assessments to ALL New York State residents--renters and owners--at no cost. The assessments are performed by professional, certified contractors and help you identify which improvements make sense for your home. Having an energy assessment qualifies you for incentives, rebates, and low-interest loans that can be applied to your energy-efficiency improvements.

You should accompany the auditor to learn the most about your home and its energy needs. Based on the assessment, contractors will provide you with a report with recommended actions to improve the comfort and safety of your home, as well as reduce your energy bills. The report will provide payback estimates for each of the improvements.
