Checklist FAQ

Should I print the checklist or use it on my phone?

Either works. Many homeowners run the checklist on a phone during the audit, then print it later when they want to compare fixes room by room.

How long does the checklist take to finish?

A quick first pass usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. A more thorough room-by-room audit can take about an hour.

What if I find problems in multiple phases?

That is common. Start with the no-cost setting changes and the leaks causing the biggest waste, then work through the other phases in ROI order.

What should I do after I finish the checklist?

After the checklist, compare solution kits, take the energy personality quiz, or order the EcoHome Energy Audit Report for a personalized fix order.

Phone or print?

Either. Most people use a phone during the walk-through, then print the list if they want a final paper copy.

How long does it take?

About 20–30 minutes for a fast pass, or around an hour for a room-by-room sweep.

What if I find several issues?

That is normal. Start with no-cost setting changes, then fix the leak with the fastest payback first.

What comes next?

Use the quiz, compare kits, or order the audit report if you want a personalized action plan.
