Energy Assessments
Reduce your energy costs and upgrade your home or office by allowing E3 Innovate, LLC (E3) energy rating services to detect inefficiencies in your building. E3 uses a team of trained and certified professionals to systematically inspect and analyze the energy systems of your building based on a standardized scale. The resulting rating is a structured assessment of the energy efficiency of the building which also recommends cost-effective measures to make the structure more energy efficient.
E3 Innovate, LLC also provides two energy audit options:
I. Basic Energy Inspection
- Record utility* rates
- Record utility consumption
- Insulation and air infiltration
- Windows and doors
- Basement and crawlspace
- Moisture
- Landscaping

- Structural integrity
- A basic report with improvement suggestions will be provided
II. Comprehensive Energy Audit
- More detailed assessment of the above Basic Review items

Home Energy Rating Services graph:
Blower Door Test
The blower door is a powerful fan that mounts into the frame of an exterior door. The fan pulls air out of the house, lowering the air pressure inside. The higher outside air pressure then flows in through all unsealed cracks and openings. These tests determine the air infiltration rate of a building.
Duct Blaster Test
A duct blaster test combines a small fan and a pressure gauge to pressurize a home’s duct system and accurately measure air leakage of the duct work. Duct leakage can increase heating and cooling costs over 30% and contribute to comfort, health, and safety problems.
