Your Pathway to a More Comfortable and Affordable Home

Your Home Energy Score doesn’t just rate your home — it helps you understand what to do next.

Your score reflects how efficiently your home uses energy compared to other homes. A higher score generally means:

  • Less energy waste

  • Lower heating and cooling costs

  • Greater comfort

  • Better indoor air quality

Your score is based on the physical characteristics of your home, not your energy bills or personal behavior.

Home Energy Score recommendations typically fall into two categories:

  • Start with Weatherization Upgrades

    Air sealing, insulation, duct sealing, and window improvements can:

    · Reduce drafts
    · Improve temperature consistency
    · Lower heating and cooling bills
    · Prepare your home for future upgrades

  • Next, Electrification Upgrades

    Heat Pumps, heat-pump water heaters, induction cooking, and other electric appliances can:

    · Improve comfort and indoor air quality
    · Reduce long-term energy costs
    · Lower your home’s carbon emissions

In some areas, rebates or incentives may be available to help offset upgrade costs. Visit switchison.org to learn about available options.
