Home energy audit in Metro Detroit: what to expect
A home energy audit finds where your house wastes energy and ranks the fixes. A good one includes a blower door test, a look at the attic, walls and basement, a combustion safety check on gas appliances, and often thermal imaging. You get a written report with a prioritized list, not just a sales pitch.
Older Metro Detroit homes commonly have thin attic insulation, open rim joists, leaky ducts and bypasses around chimneys and plumbing. Pre-1980 homes may have vermiculite or other suspect materials, which an auditor should flag rather than disturb. Before you pay for one, check your utility: DTE Energy and Consumers Energy both run home assessment programs. For help filing rebates, see utility rebate assistance.
What a proper job includes
- Review of recent utility bills and comfort problems
- Blower door test to measure and locate air leaks
- Attic, wall and basement insulation inspection
- Combustion safety check on gas furnace and water heater
- Thermal imaging when conditions allow
- Written report with prioritized, specific recommendations
- Guidance on utility programs to check
What drives the price
- Home size, age and number of stories
- Tests included: blower door, duct, infrared
- Whether a utility program covers part of it
- Energy modeling and report detail
- Independent auditor versus contractor audit
- Post-upgrade retest

Credentials and rebates in Michigan
DTE Energy's Home Energy Assessment is for eligible DTE customers with gas-heated homes and uses participating contractors who run blower door tests, equipment testing and thermal imaging. Consumers Energy offers a free Home Energy Analysis visit with a report and some energy-saving products installed. The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (25C), which covered some home energy audits, ended for expenditures or property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Programs change, so confirm eligibility with your utility.
Michigan does not issue a state license specific to energy auditing, so ask about national credentials. The state's Home Energy Rebates program accepts auditors with credentials such as BPI Building Analyst, BPI Energy Auditor or a RESNET HERS Rater certification. Any insulation, HVAC or electrical work that follows is done by contractors holding the LARA license for that trade, with permits where required.
