The Enlightened Home is an energy auditing, home weatherization, and residential consulting company. We understand that energy costs are on the rise and budgets are tight. That is why we strive to save you money while making your home healthier, more comfortable and more efficient.
Every house loses energy in a variety of ways, some more than others, costing the owners money. Even if your home is relatively new, a professional energy audit can help. In Fact, the government estimates that many homes can realize a decrease in utility costs of 20% to 30% and there are thousands of success stories to back it up. As an added bonus, these upgraded homes are more comfortable to live in year round. They are also healthier for the families living in them due to less pollutants, dust, and allergens entering the home. Bottom line, It IS possible to live comfortably in your home while saving money on your monthly utility bills.
Popular Solutions
Let's face it, there are alot of people out there telling you that this product or that service will save you money and many of them can. There are so many choices of windows, insulation, weatherstripping, siding, appliances, heating and cooling equiptment, and the list goes on. How do you choose the correct course of action? Every house is different and requires a different solution. A house must be addressed as a whole system, everything that makes up a home affects some other part of it and sometimes in some surprising ways.
The Future Of Energy Savings
House as a Whole System- To many, this is a new concept in the residential industry. Truth is, the foundation of the science began years ago during the energy crisis of the 70's. Now due to higher energy costs people are once again beginning to take a closer look at how they are living as well as the homes they're living in.
The ultimate goal is to have a home that is net zero. In other words, a home that produces all the energy it needs without having to use any from outside sources. The reality of the situation is it will take alot for us to get to that point. In the mean time, we can have our homes diagnosed in a scientific way and make the recommended changes for them to be as good as they can be.
How We Can Help
The Enlightened Home uses state of the art diagnostic equipment to test your home. We then put together a Retrofit Recommendation Report so you have the knowledge you need to make an informed decision about what measures will help your home as well as an estimate of the the cost. Our reports will also show estimated savings in utility costs from each measure implemented and estimated payback times in years. Some of the many other items we consider and look at are moisture issues, indoor air quality, comfort issues, temperature imbalances, and any other issues that a particular home may have.
The Enlightened Home LLC can help you conserve energy, which we all know is better for the environment, and lower your utility bills, easing your monthly budget.
