If your home feels drafty, has rooms that are always too hot or too cold, or your utility bills seem higher than they should be, your home may be losing energy in ways you can’t see.
The Whole Home Energy Solutions (WHES) Program helps New Jersey homeowners identify and address these issues through a comprehensive home energy assessment and recommended energy-saving upgrades.
Rather than focusing on a single system, the program looks at how your entire home works together to improve comfort, efficiency, and indoor air quality.
What Is the Whole Home Energy Solutions Program?
The WHES Program is designed to help homeowners reduce energy waste and improve overall home performance. The process starts with a Whole Home Energy Assessment (WHEA) performed by a qualified contractor like GreenLife Energy Solutions.
During the assessment, an energy specialist evaluates your home’s insulation, air leakage, heating and cooling systems, and other factors that affect comfort and energy use.
The goal is to identify opportunities to make your home more efficient while helping lower energy costs.
What Happens During an Energy Assessment?
A Whole Home Energy Assessment typically includes:
- Inspecting insulation levels
- Identifying drafts and air leaks
- Evaluating HVAC equipment
- Reviewing ventilation and indoor air quality
- Discussing comfort concerns and energy bills
After the assessment, you’ll receive recommendations for improvements that can help your home perform better year-round.
Common Energy-Saving Upgrades
Depending on your home’s needs, recommended improvements may include:
Air Sealing
Sealing gaps and cracks helps prevent conditioned air from escaping, reducing drafts and improving comfort.
Insulation Upgrades
Proper insulation helps keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer while reducing the workload on your HVAC system.
HVAC Improvements
Upgrading older heating and cooling equipment can improve efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
Ventilation Solutions
Proper ventilation helps manage moisture, improve indoor air quality, and create a healthier living environment.
Benefits of the WHES Program
Many homeowners participate in the program because it can provide:
- Lower energy bills
- More consistent indoor temperatures
- Fewer drafts and hot or cold spots
- Improved indoor air quality
- Increased home value
- Reduced environmental impact
By addressing the root causes of energy loss, homeowners can enjoy a more comfortable and efficient home throughout the year.
Rebates May Be Available
The Whole Home Energy Solutions Program may offer rebates on eligible energy-efficiency improvements. Available incentives vary depending on the upgrades completed and current program guidelines.
A qualified contractor can help determine which improvements may qualify and explain available rebate opportunities (with 0% APR).
