Blower Door Test

A Blower Door Test is a sensational way to discover points of air infiltration into your home -- you can literally feel the flow of air from leaky outlets, windows, cracks, etc.  This test will cost you between $200 and $400 but can pay for itself in energy savings within two years.  A certified Home Energy Rater (HERS) like The Hoots Group of Atlanta can perform this important step to a greener home.  You can find more certified Home Energy Raters for your area online at the Certified Rater Directory. 

Don't do a remodel without a Blower Door Test.
