Hey guys,
Have any of you ever hired a contractor to come in to do one of those energy efficiency audits where they check/test for drafts, leaks, poor insulation, proper cooling, etc and make suggestions as to what can be done to improve the efficiency of your home mostly so as to retain heat when it's cold out as well as to keep things cool when it's hot out?
My local electric company was running a promo where you can get up to $XX amount back in rebates if you have an audit done as well as certain improvements made... I never went through with it but was sort of guessing that the audit + any work done would probably cost way more than what the rebates were.
Has anyone ever done this or hired someone to do it? Is it worth it? Or is it better off a "DIY" project? Only thought on DIY is that it's probably easier to be bias to your own oversights... that's sort of the purpose of having a 3rd party come in to perform an "audit"
