About Eco-Wise Living
Our Mission
What We Do
When you set up an appointment for a Home Energy Audit or a Home Energy Rating, one of our RESNET-accredited Energy Raters will perform an onsite inspection of your home. The Energy Rater will review your home to identify its energy characteristics, including insulation levels, window efficiency, lighting and appliances, heating and cooling system efficiency, solar orientation, and water heating system. Click here for tips on getting your home ready before the Rater arrives.
When you contract with us for ENERGY STAR certification of your new construction, one of our RESNET-accredited Energy Raters will work with you to help you incorporate energy efficient techniques and materials. The Energy Rater will provide detailed reports of inspections and the documentation needed for preliminary and final ENERGY STAR certification.
