Take Advantage of the Home Energy Assessment Program
As we all know, the colder months are ahead and as we struggle to get back on track with the recent financial setbacks caused by Covid, it’s time to discover some efforts to save on our energy costs. Did you know that Dominion has a Home Energy Assessment Program that provides customers with an in-home energy assessment where a qualified participating contractor will conduct a 30-60 minute walk-through of your home and install simple measures like LED bulbs and water heater pipe insulation, while identifying other energy-saving opportunities?
These additional opportunities, which may require separate appointments with specific contractors, include:
Heat pump tune-up
Duct sealing and insulation on heat pump systems and central air conditioners
Heat pump system upgrades
Upgrade to heat pump water heater
ECM fan motor replacements on heat pump systems and central air conditioners
Cool roof installation
It’s also the time to begin looking at winterizing your home. Sealing windows to prevent drafts, cleaning and maintaining your fireplace and chimneys, and checking your gutters are a good start to ensuring your home is prepared for the Winter months.
