What is a home energy audit?

A home energy audit is a professional inspection that identifies where your home is losing energy. It includes checks of your HVAC system, insulation, windows, ducts, and more to improve efficiency and reduce costs.

How can an energy audit save me money?

By revealing areas of energy loss, we help you target improvements that reduce utility bills. Many of our customers see significant savings after sealing leaks, upgrading insulation, or adjusting HVAC settings.

How long does a typical audit take?

Most energy audits take 1–2 hours, depending on the size and layout of your home. We provide a detailed report and walk you through the findings after the assessment.

Is it worth doing an audit if my HVAC system is new?

Yes! Even with new equipment, poor insulation, leaky ducts, or improper settings can lead to inefficiency. An audit ensures your whole home is working together efficiently.

Can I make the recommended upgrades myself?

Some minor fixes—like sealing windows or upgrading your thermostat—can be DIY. For larger upgrades, we offer professional installation and trusted recommendations.

Do you offer audits for older homes?

Absolutely. In fact, older homes often benefit the most from energy audits because they’re more likely to have outdated systems or insufficient insulation.

Is financing available for energy efficiency upgrades?

Yes, we offer financing for HVAC replacements, duct sealing, insulation upgrades, and other improvements recommended during an audit.

Will an energy audit help improve indoor air quality too?

Yes. By identifying areas of poor airflow or excessive humidity, an energy audit can lead to better IAQ through improvements like dehumidifiers or upgraded ventilation.

I can only speak for my experience with Nick as an employee of the company. My older house had multiple plumbing challenges where the plumbing parts needed to repair the leaks were for no name brand shower faucets. The only option offered by the 4-5 other companies I obtained estimates from was to replace the whole system with a new one. I was shocked when Nick informed that he could likely find the replacement parts needed at an unconventional plumbing supply store and not have to replace to whole plumbing system. Repairing the multiple plumbing issues was much cheaper than having to replace the the system. None of the other companies even provided repairing as an option! Shout out to AUX for allowing Nick the latitude to go out and search for the parts. I am thinking most companies would not have allowed the technicians the time to do that!
