Maximizing Home Energy Efficiency
This presentation provides homeowners with an in-depth understanding of EnerGuide Energy Evaluations, Canada’s official energy rating and labelling system. Attendees will learn about the evaluation process, including on-site data collection, energy modelling, and report generation.
The session will cover:
- How to interpret the EnerGuide rating, including energy consumption breakdowns, airtightness testing, and recommended upgrades.
- Energy efficiency improvements, from short-term fixes like insulation and window upgrades to long-term investments like solar panels and net-zero home conversions.
- Hiring contractors, including key qualifications, certifications, and best practices for selecting reputable service providers.
- Funding opportunities, such as the Greener Homes Loan and CEIP, to help finance energy-saving home upgrades.
Event attendees will be entered to win efficiency door prizes such as smart thermostats, energy-saving power bars, and hot water tank insulation jackets!
