We invite Moffat, Rio Blanco and Routt residents to participate in the residential energy audit rebate program.  The goal of the program is to save energy and stimulate the economy.  There are lots of home energy audit rebates available on www.rechargecolorado.com. The rebates are on a first come first-served basis and are available for existing homes.  Contractors that perform the energy audits must be BPI (Building Performance Institute) or RESNET (residential Energy Services Network) accredited building analysts.  Fortunately we have 2 qualified contractors in our area.  Greenleaf Building Performance 970-846-2640 and Mountain Energy Consultants 970-393-2202.  There are generally different service tiers where your energy auditor will perform different tasks on site.  A “walk through” audit in your house will allow the auditor to review a checklist of items that you will look at to see if any energy efficient improvements can be made.  Other tiers provide for a comprehensive audit of your home utilizing special equipment to test your doors, windows, installation, etc for drafts and air leakage.  The energy auditors checklist is in-depth and you can be assured that the recommendations will lead to more comfort in your home.
