EceEnergy Audit - Part Deux

Today we completed the second stage of the Energy Audit offered by the federal and provincial governments. The process itself isn't as riveting as I had expected, I was under the assumption that this "fan" you hear about would suck all of the dust and pet hair out of my house and collect in a nice tidy ball on this contraption....... no such luck, you barely hear or feel it.

The initial audit rated the original house at a 68% on the EnerGuide scale provided by Natural Resources Canada, that is based on how much air can by pulled through your house. When Chris was present for the first audit, the fan moved quite quickly, this time - not so much, however until the magic numbers are punched into the sophisticated computer software, we will not know our exact Energuide rating and how the renovations we have performed have improved that number.

So, we have submitted our figures and now we wait and see how much we will ultimately qualify for in rebates, as our auditor put it "Now all you have to do is take the cheque to the bank".
