A Home Performance with ENERGY STAR project can provide:
Utility bill savings
- Homes that have been upgraded with Home Performance with ENERGY STAR cost significantly less to heat and cool
- Home energy savings range from 25-30%, but can be as high as 50-60%
Fewer drafts and consistent temperatures across rooms
- Foaming, caulking and weatherstripping, adding insulation, or replacing windows can help to eliminate uncomfortable cold spots and overheated rooms
- Many homeowners also report reduced dust in their homes after completing Home Performance with ENERGY STAR projects
Better ventilation and humidity control
- Sealing air leaks and installing right-sized, energy-efficient heating and cooling equipment can dramatically increase the feeling of comfort in your home and can help to control the development of mold
Environmental Benefits of Saving Energy
- Most energy in our homes comes from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, natural gas) that produce greenhouse gases
- By saving energy you're helping make the most of our nation’s energy resources and reduce emissions of greenhouse gases
