As the owner of Better Home Diagnostics, LLC, I invite you to call me for all your code requirement needs. I am a certified HERS Rater but can also perform a simple Blower Door or Duct System test as needed. My provider is Southface in Atlanta.
I work out of Birmingham, AL and cover all of north central Alabama. Feel free to give me a call with any questions you have and I'll get back to you just as quickly as I can.
I provide rating services to qualify new homes for the ENERGY STAR® v3 label. ENERGY STAR qualified new homes are substantially more energy efficient than homes built to the minimum code requirements. ENERGY STAR is the symbol for truly energy-efficient home performance. ENERGY STAR homes are good for businesses, consumers, and the environment.

Home Owners
If you want to be more comfortable in your home, or are tired of paying high utility bills each month, I can help. I am fully certified by the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET) and am an ENERGY STAR Partner, which means I am fully qualified to perform an energy audit on your home.
It is important to note that unlike other firms who offer home energy audits, I am not selling windows, insulation or a new furnace. Better Home Diagnostics, LLC is a home energy auditor and Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Rater exclusively. You can be confident that our audits accurately reflect the energy efficiency of your home. However, should the audit identify a need for upgrades, we will be glad to suggest a contractor from our list of trusted contacts and follow up to insure the job is done right.
Many factors affect a home's comfort level and efficiency, such as windows, doors, attic insulation, etc. However, studies show that the two factors most important to the comfort and efficiency of a home are leaks of outside air and leakage in the duct system.
Our energy audit includes a comprehensive report specific to your home with recommendations for how you can get the most improvement for the least money spent. Too often, homeowners are lead to believe that in order for their home to be more comfortable and energy efficient they must undertake major and expensive renovations. This is usually not the case. In fact, the most cost effective improvements are often simple tasks that can be completed by the home owner.
I invite you to give me a call or send an email to bill@betterhomediagnostics.com. I look forward to hearing from you and working to curb the high cost of utility bills for your home
