Being an Energy Consultant, house energy audits are highly targeted examinations with one essential advantage: You will know precisely how much energy you are using and where energy efficiency can be increased in your house. For instance, you may find more cost-effective ways to save money through energy-efficiency improvements, but you might be shocked at how little you can spend on things that will stretch those savings over time and reduce your utility bill. The amount of money you can save on utilities each month will determine how much you can save with a home energy audit. Although it won't ever bring you to zero, increasing the energy efficiency of your house can significantly lower your bills. This type of audit is usually only given to homeowners preparing a major remodel.
