The Renovation Roadmap in-depth energy evaluations plans to involve more than one thousand houses throughout Nova Scotia. These houses will be evaluated between September 2001 and January 2003. Carried out by qualified building technologists, the evaluations include computer analysis of energy-related data (thermal properties, air leakage areas and air exchange rate) gathered during a two to three hour on site visit. The result is a detailed, customized homeowner report which outlines the current performance of the house and suggests retrofitting options with the estimated reduction in fuel costs as well as the corresponding reduction in GHG production.
