A typical residential assessment takes between 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the size of your home and the specific components being evaluated.
What should I do before the appointment?
Prepare your home by turning off all heating and cooling systems, and ensure that all windows and doors are closed to get accurate results.
What is a blower door test?
