Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
A 'Basic' audit, typically $150–$400, focuses on common issues and general savings plans, often involving visual inspections. A 'Premium' audit, priced $650–$1000, offers much more detailed diagnostics using scientific tools, extensive assessment, and is often suitable for homes with multiple energy systems or those requiring in-depth analysis.
For multi-family units, pricing is often per test unit, with rates around $425 per test unit for pre- and post-testing. Single-family homes typically fall into the tiered pricing structure, ranging from $150 for basic to $1000 for premium, depending on the scope and complexity, especially if they have multiple HVAC systems (e.g., $150 per additional system).
Yes, some utilities like Georgia Power or Cobb EMC might offer rebates for energy efficiency upgrades or specific audit services. For example, a multi-family energy audit might see a $75 GA Power rebate applied, which can reduce the customer's out-of-pocket cost. Contractors should advise clients to check with their local utility providers for current programs.
Most energy audits are typically quoted as a flat fee based on the scope of work (Basic, Mid-range, Premium tiers). Hourly rates ($75–$150 per hour) are generally reserved for highly specialized diagnostic work, consulting, or when the scope is not fully defined upfront. For standard audits, a flat fee offers more transparency and predictability for the customer.
Costs can increase beyond the typical range if the audit involves commercial properties (priced per square foot), homes with multiple HVAC and energy systems (an additional $150 per system), extensive use of scientific diagnostic tools like blower door tests and infrared cameras, or requires a highly detailed report and comprehensive recommendations. These elements move an audit into the 'Premium' tier.
