The Evaluation Report

The Renovation Upgrade Report

After the energy efficiency advisor’s first visit, you’ll receive the evaluation report on your home. Take the time to review it: this document will guide you when you make your upgrades or improvements and might also serve as a discussion tool if you need to contact a contractor. 

The renovation pugrade report covers all aspects of a home that relate to energy efficiency: insulation, airtightness, the performance of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, and the energy consumption habits of the occupants. 

It shows you where to make improvements and possible ways to save energy in your home.

The EnerGuide Label

The EnerGuide label enables you, among other things, to better understand your energy consumption, compare the energy performance of your home with the performance of a new home similar to yours, see the breakdown of your energy consumption and even view your impact on the environment resulting from the amount of greenhouse gas emissions your home produces.

You can consult the details of the EnerGuide label or the information on the EnerGuide Rating page.

The Homeowner Information Sheet

After each evaluation of your home, you’ll receive a homeowner information sheet. In addition to giving you information about the rating calculation, greenhouse gas emissions, the energy breakdown, and areas where heat loss occurs, the homeowner information sheet provides a full range of details about your home.
