Scottsdale Home Energy Audits

Whether you get excited for the Waste Management Open, watching the 4th of July fireworks at Greyhawk or just hanging out with the neighbors and kids at the local park, Scottsdale really is the "most livable city."  


With most of the development in Scottsdale built before or at the end of the housing bubble, many builders cut corners and now Scottsdale homeowners are the ones paying the price.

Tired of hot and cold rooms, ever increasing utility bills or always dusting the blinds and furniture?  Just like a doctor using x-rays and blood work to diagnose health problems, Green ID's home energy auditors use advanced equipment and technology to identify exactly what is causing those problems and recommend solutions to create a more healthy, comfortable and energy efficient home.
The evaluation was impressive, with hundreds of photos taken of the crawl spaces to show where and how they were going to repair the problems. A little over a week later, they came back and realigned all the fiberglass insulation batts, installed 6" additional insulation; fully sealed all of the ducting, returns and registers and installed jump ducting. They were prompt, clean and very professional. They also took the time to explain all of the how's and why's as well as make some suggestions that we could do ourselves to reduce our power bill.

There are 2 rooms in the house that never cool down.  After the audit, David came out and provided me with a detailed plan on what could be done to improve the cooling of the rooms as well as the entire house.  The plan consisted of adding more insulation in the attic, sealing the return lines to reduce warm air entering into the AC system, and rerouting some of the AC runs.  He discussed with me 2 different options to improve the cooling of the two warm rooms.  David was open to answering all my questions and evaluating my suggestions.  We came up with a plan to add another line to each of the rooms and put dampers in to redirect air from rooms not used as much.  David and his team spent 2 days at the house and were very professional and helpful.  The result is those 2 rooms have never been cooler!  We are very happy with how cool the entire house feels after the work Green ID performed.  I am very pleased with the work David and his team did and would highly recommend them to help cool down your house!

I contacted Green ID for a second opinion, had already had a consultation /  home energy audit through the APS Home Performance with Energy Star Program.  I was wary of the opinion of the first company, who had high Angies List Ratings.  They had seemed very sales-oriented, and the proposal / estimate seemed quite high, and they had recommended a new, top of the line, heating and A/C unit to replace our 2 ton unit that serves a minority of our home - the unit isn't that old and still works.
Green ID did a very thorough assessment, found a lot of the same problems, but only recommended doing what was cost effective or necessary.  I shared with them the information from the first estimate, and they added a couple of things I suggested / wanted done.  In the end, they did the work for around $4500, and they hooked me up with a company for sunscreens for the windows (my request) for an additional $500.
They did a good job, were very nice, and professional, and cleaned up after themselves.  It can be a very dirty job insulating the attic.  The work was scheduled in a timely manner, and they were easy to deal with.  The re-did some ductwork, sealed around the return of one of the a/c units, put in new registers, and did a lot of attic insulating.  Also, there were many air leaks from the attic to air between the walls, and this was all sealed off.  
It's easy to tell that our air does not run nearly as often, or blow as hard.  Haven't seen the latest energy bill, but I'm sure it will be very much lower.  They're also getting us a lot of rebates from APS for the work.
Great job, great price, cost effective energy upgrades.
