If you are looking for the most cost effective way to solve your energy related needs, we have the services that make that possible.

 
Our services that provide you solutions are:
 
 
Energy assessments are the first step to understanding how energy efficient (or not) your home or business is today. A comprehensive energy assessment is the on-site inspection of your building using diagnostic tools to assess the building’s envelope and systems. Our BPI and HERS certified professionals are trained to test your building to determine it's energy efficiency and help improve it's comfort, health, and durability which ultimately lowers utility bills. The foundation for our services is rooted in building science and the “House-as-a-system” approach to diagnosing buildings. Don’t just hope that by replacing your windows you will save the 25% on your electric bills as the ad was suggesting! Don't replace that HVAC unit because of promises that it will cut your costs by 40%! Don't add a radiant barrier to your attic due to promises of increased energy savings when it may not be the best for optimizing your home's performance! Be sure of your performance expectations by having an "whole-home" energy assessment completed which helps you understand your building's true needs and capabilities. Comprehensive assessments typically start around a few hundred dollars but can pay for themselves quickly when combined with recommended energy upgrades. Knowing where to focus your efforts allows you to maximize your investment dollars.
 

Thermal Imaging is also fundamental to our energy assessment and inspection business. For homes and business that are experiencing energy related issues, the thermal imager allows us better detection of the hard to find causes – i.e. air leaks, missing insulation, bulk water leaks, etc… and minimizes invasive, destructive measures. Banks and business that need electrical panel scans for insurance, the thermal imaging can point out potential fires hazards from loose or tight connections and help ensure you a safe structure. If you have a flat roof, thermal imaging is a great way to lengthen the life of the roof by helping find those hard to detect leaks before they cause a larger problem.

 
The "whole-home" assessment and infrared scan provide you with the information needed to prioritize your energy retrofit projects. These energy upgrades can be performed by you or someone you know and trust, or we can handle the total retrofit process for you. We have an alliance of subcontractors and builders, as well as in-house personnel that will ensure your energy retrofits are completed properly and effectively. We use the test-in and test-out method of tracking our progress and providing our own quality assurance. We follow the BPI Standards for all retrofits to ensure the safety of the building, the occupants, and the earth.
 
Using Elm Energy Group’s BPI and HERS certified professionals gives you the backing of the national recognized organizations with in-house quality assurance programs.
