Free Home Energy Assessment

Find out where you could be throwing money away

You wouldn’t want a doctor to operate on you before giving you a physical examination, right? It’s the same with contractors. You shouldn’t let them replace your air conditioning system until they conduct a thorough home inspection and system performance test.

When you call ECM, a highly-trained comfort advisor shows up, armed with the latest home performance technology and diagnostic tools. They’ll conduct a 99-Point Comfort and Energy Assessment.

Your comfort advisor then analyzes the data collected to determine your equipment’s optimum performance. They will provide options and costs for a customized solution, as well as estimated energy savings.

In most homes, this procedure takes about two hours and provides minimal disruption to your regular household routine.
