Energy Audit in Bridgeville, DE
Challenge
This is a newly built home in Bridgeville, DE. For over a decade Delaware building contractors have been required to construct homes in compliance with strict energy efficiency building codes. This means, among other things, new homes must be properly insulated to provide a barrier to thermal heat energy loss, and air sealed to prevent loss of conditioned air and the energy it carries along with it, through the building shell.
Lawson Home Services performs energy audits to measure the energy efficiency of homes, both old and new. Owners of older homes are typically seeking ways to improve home comfort and lower energy bills, while owners of new construction want to see how well their homes were built and seek any opportunities that may exist to improve home comfort and energy.
Solution
Lawson Home Services conducts Home Energy Audits, both in Maryland and Delaware homes. The State of Delaware has a wonderful program, Energize Delaware, which subsidizes not only the audits, but many of the improvements recommended in the audit. That's a deal no homeowner in Delaware can afford to pass up.
