Want to know what a typical experience through the Energy Upgrade Program is like?
The first step in the Advanced Package is a Home Energy Assessment, conducted by a Participating Contractor. The Contractor will spend a few hours in the home to identify ways to save money. Raters will then develop a scope of work report for the homowner. Reviewing an example scope of work may be helpful. Here are six examples:
1. The Building Doctors Report for the Brown Family
2. The REEis Report for the Bryan Family
3. The REAS Report for the Dobbs Family
4. The REAS Report for the Gerardo Family
5. The SoCal Remodeling Report for the Kelly Family
6. The SoCal Remodeling Report for the Kienzle Family
Winners of the Home Energy Makeover Contest are opening up their homes to share their winning experience of upgrading to be more energy efficient - some as much as 80% more efficient! Click here to find an Open House near you!
Also, these scenarios can help you understand how the Energy Upgrade packages apply to typical houses.
Contractors are standing-by to give detached single-family homeowners a thorough action plan to cut energy bills and most importantly - dramatically increase the comfort and health of your home!
