Frequently Asked Questions

What does a building energy audit involve for a home in Hobart?

Our comprehensive energy audit for Hobart homes is a detailed assessment of your home's envelope and systems. We use specialized equipment, like a blower door, to measure air leakage and identify drafts common in our local climate. The audit also includes an inspection of insulation levels, HVAC duct performance, and overall building tightness. The final report provides a clear, prioritized list of improvements—such as sealing leaks or adding insulation—to enhance comfort, reduce your heating and cooling bills, and improve indoor air quality specific to Northwest Indiana's weather patterns.

My AC unit in Hobart is leaking water inside. Can an energy audit help diagnose this?

Absolutely. A common local issue like a clogged condensate drain line, which causes water leakage, is often part of a broader system inefficiency we can identify. During our HVAC diagnostic testing, we check the entire system's performance, including drainage. While clearing the immediate clog is a separate service, our audit can reveal if poor insulation, duct leaks, or an improperly sized unit is causing the system to overwork and produce excess condensation, leading to frequent clogs. We provide insights to address the root cause for a longer-term solution.

Why is a Manual J calculation important for a new home or HVAC replacement in Northwest Indiana?

A Manual J calculation is the industry standard for determining the exact heating and cooling load of your home. It's crucial in our region because Indiana's seasonal extremes mean an improperly sized HVAC system will struggle. An oversized unit will short-cycle, wasting energy and failing to dehumidify properly in summer, while an undersized one won't keep you comfortable in winter. Our over 30 years of local experience ensure these calculations account for Hobart's specific climate, your home's construction, and insulation, guaranteeing your new system is efficient, effective, and built to last.
