About the SEEDS Home Energy Efficiency Assessment Program

A SEEDS Home Energy Efficiency Assessment will help you conserve energy, improve your home’s comfort level and save money!

Our assessment team will inspect the interior and exterior of your home and provide simple steps and advice for improving your home’s energy efficiency.

The SEEDS Energy Efficiency team is made up of SEEDS adult volunteers and paid local high school students interns. Everyone is trained by a course designed by a certified building analyst professional. Our team is not affiliated with any business, and assessments are fully funded by membership dues and grants, so you can rest assured that you are receiving impartial recommendations for reducing your energy bills and/or fossil-fuel dependency.

Note: While we are trained in energy assessment techniques, we are not certified energy auditors. Our assessments are for educational and informational purposes only.
