What is the difference between Home Energy Retrofitting and Energy Auditing?
Energy auditors perform the initial inspection and assesment portion of the project. Using a blower door, thermal imaging camera and off-site calculations, their goal is to determine the energy efficiency of a building and provide recommendations. Retrofitters or Contractors are tasked with performing the recommended upgrades. Often this involves installing insulation, replacing windows, air sealing and HVAC upgrades.
