OT: Anyone have a Home Energy Audit done before and recommend a contractor?

[Ellery]

Since it's like blistering cold this winter so far and a bad ice damming season I was wondering if anyone in the Rochester area had a comprehensive Home Energy Audit done before and by who and would you recommend them.

I've gone around the house with a laster thermometer and tried caulking and sealing as much of the house up but seems like I have alot to do.
On the other hand an energy usage calculator for the square footage of my house says I'm already within the Energy Star limit so who to believe.

I figured since we suck quite a bit of energy running our systems it's to our best interest to be energy smart and efficient as much as possible.

Thanks, Let me know what you think!:wave:

I almost got one last year from Comfort, but it was only free if you also had them do the work afterward. How can you be impartial and not be biased to find issues when you are looking to make money fixing issues?

I plan to do it one of these days, but want to find a company that solely does audits, I will do or contract the work as I see fit.
