Find A Contractor

For a discounted price of $100, a Building Performance Institute-certified (BPI) home energy expert will evaluate your homes’ heating and cooling systems, insulation and windows. They’ll also conduct a blower door test to find air leaks that could be costing you money and making your home drafty. You’ll learn how to save on energy costs year-round and receive up to $10,000 in rebates for eligible home improvements.

How it works:

Step 1: Schedule Your Audit

Find a participating contractor and schedule your audit.

Step 2: Make Recommended Improvements

You’ll receive a report with recommended energy-efficient home improvements, project costs and estimated yearly energy savings. Choose which upgrades you want to invest in and have the work completed.

Step 3: Get Your Rebate

Once the improvements are complete, a final blower door test will estimate your home’s energy savings and determine your rebate amount. Rebates equal 75% of eligible improvement costs, up to a maximum of $10,000 per home. See the rebate Terms and Conditions here.
