Green Austin Energy Audits makes it easy to stay compliant with the City of Austin’s energy conservation requirements. From fast scheduling and accurate reporting to experienced inspections, we help homeowners, builders, and property managers complete energy audits with confidence.
Energy Audits and Assessments
The City of Austin and Austin Energy offer rebates and incentives to homeowners and businesses willing to make energy-smart upgrades to their homes or businesses.
- Increasing attic insulation to R38
- Installing Solar Screens, Solar Film, or Low-E windows
- Adding radiant barriers in the attic
- Replacing or insulating and sealing ducts
- Installing new qualifying HVAC system
An Energy Audit from GAE is the first step in qualifying for these savings.
Multifamily ECAD
Qualifying apartment communities, mixed-use developments, and affordable-housing properties in Austin need an ECAD audit in the year they turn 10 years old, and again every 10 years. We handle the onsite inspection and testing, prepare the report, and submit it directly to Austin Energy.
- Independent auditors. We do not sell improvements.
- Representative sample of units, not every apartment
- Direct submission and corrections with Austin Energy
- Primary focus on properties with 5–100 units
Third-Party Testing
Independent third-party IECC energy code testing for builders, remodelers, and HVAC contractors in Austin and Central Texas. Testing is available at both rough-in and final, most appointments can be scheduled within one or two business days, and compliance reports are typically delivered the same day.
- Blower door envelope leakage testing
- HVAC duct leakage testing
- Supply airflow verification
- Mechanical ventilation airflow verification
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is a non-invasive, non destructive technology that uses infrared technology to detect small differences in surface temperature in the scanned areas which allows our inspector to identify and precisely locate:
- Roof leaks
- Plumbing Leaks
- Termite activity
- Air escapement in duct-work
- Air infiltration from the outside
- Areas of missing or insufficient insulation in walls, floor or ceilings
These areas can be observed without opening up walls, drilling holes or damaging the existing property. Contact GAE today and learn more about how thermal imaging technology can help you.
