Home Energy Audit

Seattle City Light offers home energy audits for $95 to City Light customers living in single family homes. Auditors certified by the Building Performance Institute will visit your home and conduct a thorough assessment of its insulation level, leakiness, and heating system efficiency, as well as installing free energy conserving compact fluorescent light bulbs. You will receive an "Energy Performance Scorecard" that rates the current efficiency level of your home, a bit like the MPG rating for a car. You also receive a report with suggested energy improvements, their estimated costs, and their potential for energy and climate impact reduction.

To request an audit, please click here which will bring you to our partner organization, Earth Advantage Institute and their page titled: "The Seattle Energy Performance Score Program". There you will be able to establish a user name and password to sign in. If you are eligible, you will receive a coupon number and be able to schedule your audit from a list of certified home energy auditors.   If you have any questions, please call an Energy Advisor
at 206-684-3800.

NEW!  If you live in the Community Power Works (CPW) area, you may be eligible for window, insulation and air-sealing rebates. You may qualify if you own a home, condo or townhouse in the CPW area. For more information, please call an Energy Advisor at 206-684-3800.

For income-eligible customers, the City's Office of Housing offers free home energy audits and free comprehensive weatherization services. For more information, visit their website or call 206.684.0244.
