What Is a Home Energy Audit?
A home energy audit (also called a home energy assessment) evaluates how efficiently a home uses energy. Our BPI‑certified auditors assess insulation levels, air leakage, ventilation, and safety factors to identify where energy loss is occurring — and what improvements will have the biggest impact.
After your audit, you’ll receive recommendations that can help:
- Improve year‑round comfort
- Lower heating and cooling costs
- Identify air sealing and insulation improvements
- Support eligibility for utility rebates and incentive programs
What Does BPI Certification Mean?
The Building Performance Institute (BPI) is a nationally recognized organization that sets standards for residential energy efficiency and building performance. BPI standards are referenced by the U.S. Department of Energy and ENERGY STAR® programs.
Our BPI‑certified professionals:
- Have passed rigorous exams in building science
- Understand how insulation, air sealing, and HVAC systems work together
- Perform important safety testing, including carbon monoxide checks
- Help prepare homes for future upgrades such as solar or geothermal systems
This certification ensures your energy audit is thorough, accurate, and focused on real‑world performance — not guesswork.

Energy Audit FAQs
How long does a home energy audit take?
Most energy audits take between 1.5 and 3 hours, depending on the size, age, and layout of the home.
Will an energy audit lower my energy bills?
An audit itself doesn’t reduce bills, but it identifies insulation and air‑sealing improvements that can significantly improve efficiency and reduce energy costs once completed.
Do energy audits qualify me for rebates?
Many utility rebate and incentive programs require a professional energy audit to qualify. Our team can help explain which programs may apply to your home or project.
Is an energy audit only for older homes?
No. Energy audits are helpful for both older and newer homes — especially if there are comfort issues, high utility bills, or plans for insulation upgrades.
Do I have to use Accurate Insulation for the recommended work?
There’s no obligation, but many homeowners and contractors choose us because we can perform both the audit and the recommended insulation or air‑sealing upgrades efficiently.
