The District Government wants to help you save money on your energy bills and
help reduce your home's contribution to climate change. If you're a District
homeowner and have a townhouse, rowhouse or single-family home of 4,000 square
feet or less, you are eligible for a free home energy audit from the District
Department of the Environment (DDOE).
Once we schedule your audit, a trained energy professional will come to your
home and measure energy characteristics such as: insulation levels, window
efficiency, wall-to-wall ratios, the heating and cooling system efficiency, the
solar orientation of the home, and the water heating system. Diagnostic testing,
which may include a blower door for air leakage and duct leakage testing, is
often part of the process.
You'll receive a home energy rating, from one to five stars, and a list of
specific and inexpensive recommendations to make your home more
energy-efficient.
