In
today's environmentally friendly society businesses are under
increasing pressure to be 'greener'. One way to do this is by
performing an energy audit. Not only will becoming more energy
efficient make you greener, but you will enjoy a nice little saving
on those utility bis as well.
Our
flagship office is actually being remodelled right now and we are
hoping to make the building itself greener by using building
materials from sustainable sources and by ensuring that it is well
insulated to cut down on heating bills. It was our contractor who
first got us turned on to energy audits. He suggested periodic energy
audits before during and after the remodelling work to make sure
things were going according to plan. It is important to set a goal to
achieve and use the audits to chart your progress towards it. The
audit can actually reveal hidden ways that your property I losing
energy. So whether you need to make sure your HVAC is working
properly or finding out where electricity is wasted the energy audit
can make everything clearer for you.
A
lot of this also applies to residential property. In fact, when you
think about it, performing an energy audit and acting on the findings
must be a viable way to raise the value of your property. I only wish
I had done it sooner! Think of all the money I could have been saving
on my energy bills all these years. I urge you to call in an energy
audit professional today for your home or place of business and see
how much you could be saving on your monthly outgoings!
