Climate Partner's Energy Services

Climate Partners, a Dr. Energy Saver franchise, provides extensive Climate Energy Services (CES), as well as exclusive energy-efficiency enhancement and conservation measures for Connecticut homeowners through our CES Home Energy Tune-Up. Our relationship with local utilities and our participation in a program known as Home Energy Solutions (HES), which is sponsored by the Connecticut Energy Efficiency Fund, we can offer certain low or no cost energy services and solutions to customers of Connecticut Light and Power (CL&P) and the United Illuminating Company (UI). Funding for the HES program is provided by CL&P, UI, Connecticut Natural Gas, Southern Connecticut Gas, and Yankee Gas.

Qualifying Connecticut homeowners are eligible for certain complimentary HES services under the HES sponsored program. Homeowners are only required to contribute with the sponsoring utility by way of a small $75 co-pay.

Dr. Energy Saver Home Energy Audit

Comprehensive Climate Energy Services

All homes are thoroughly tested to determine which energy-saving services are appropriate and offer the best return on investment for the individual home, as well as homeowner priorities. Home Energy Audits include an audio-visual inspection, plus extensive diagnostic testing to determine existing conditions in the home and how the house functions as an interactive system. From the initial testing, we provide you with a detailed analysis and report to educate you on the opportunities and priorities to improve specific areas.

Qualifying homeowners receive the following CES services:

• Infiltrometer Blower Door testing to evaluate how your house leaks energy through your walls, floors, and ceilings
• TrueFlow Diagnostic Airflow testing of central air conditioning system blower to determine total CFM versus required airflow for proper system operations
• Duct Blaster duct testing of your central heating/cooling duct systems to calculate the amount of conditioned airflow leakage that is wasted.
