Energy Efficiency Consultations
Does your home have these issues?
- Is your home cold in the winter?
- Do you suffer from high heating and cooling bills?
- Do you experience a drafty home?
- Do you encounter ice damming?
- Do you face moisture or mold issues in your home?
We at ReDefined Spaces have solutions to these problems! We examine your home as a system; the individual systems within your home–ventilation, insulation, and HVAC–operate as a team. When one system is inefficient, the other systems cannot operate at optimal efficiency. For example, if your home has air leaks or lacks proper insulation, your furnace will work harder to compensate for that.
We concentrate on improving the overall energy efficiency in your home through guidance and education, showing you how to optimize your home’s performance.

Energy Consultation Services
We offer a variety of consultation services to best suit your needs for your home.
Ventilation
We inspect your ventilation system to confirm whether it has the capacity to expel excess moisture. Proper ventilation prevents mold and moisture problems.
Insulation
We inspect the attic and the box sills in your basement, and measure for cold spots throughout the home.
Air Tightness
We examine the interior and exterior of your home’s building shell for obvious air sealing and insulation needs.
Combustion safety
Your consultant will test your furnace and water heater to ensure that your appliances are drafting properly and not leaking deadly carbon monoxide into your home. This is especially important because you’ll be increasing the air tightness of your home. You do not want to trap carbon monoxide inside.
Home Performance Report
You will receive a report documenting your home’s results. This will detail opportunities for improvements and provide solutions that address inefficiencies.
