  • Home size and number of stories
  • Pre and post tests for air sealing or rebates
  • Reporting required for code or a program

  • The age of the home: the typical Howell home was built around 1979, so original parts may be near the end of their life

Before you hire in Howell

Pre-war construction

16% of homes predate 1940. Expect plaster walls, balloon framing and possible asbestos in old pipe wrap or floor tile; test before demolition with a licensed asbestos contractor.

Mid-century and newer systems

Most homes here date from 1979 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.

Permits: check with the Howell building department before work starts.

How to compare blower door testing quotes

  • Ask whether the test is a single measurement or includes leak finding.
  • Ask whether they check gas appliances for safe venting first.
  • Confirm the report format you need for code, a rebate or a sale.
  • Ask about BPI or RESNET credentials and when the equipment was calibrated.
  • If they also sell air sealing, ask for a free or included retest.

Cost depends on home size, whether it is a standalone test or part of a full energy audit, whether a test out after air sealing is included, combustion safety checks, and whether a utility or rebate program covers part of it. Someone also needs to be home to give access.
