INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 19,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Energy is expanding its existing
free in-home assessment program and providing new virtual, phone
and web options for customers through its Home Energy House
Call program.
Through education and awareness of energy use, energy
specialists help customers find ways to save energy and money by
being more efficient. Customers receive a free energy efficiency
kit, a customized usage report, low-cost tips and expert
recommendations to help them see energy savings.
Newly eligible customers include renters of single-family homes
and owners/renters of condos, townhomes and manufactured homes.
"We are excited to enhance accessibility of our Home Energy
House Call program to reach more customers across Indiana," said Stan
Pinegar, president of Duke Energy Indiana. "It's a great way
for customers to get personalized recommendations and insights to
help them save energy and ultimately money on their energy bills
each month."
New assessments include:
- Virtual: Customers can use their cellphone camera for a virtual
walk-through of their home to conduct a free assessment with a
professional energy advisor.
- Phone: An energy advisor will perform an energy assessment over
the phone and answer any questions a customer may have.
- Online: Receive a self-directed energy assessment.
For the virtual and phone assessments, an energy specialist will
analyze customers' total home energy usage and check the efficiency
of their appliances and heating/cooling systems. The self-guided
online assessment generates customized savings recommendations
based on customer responses.
Based on the information collected, Duke Energy's experts will
give customers a customized report detailing steps they can take to
increase efficiency and lower their energy bills.
Along with the free assessment report, customers will receive an
energy efficiency kit in the mail that includes bathroom aerators,
weatherstripping, water heater insulation pipe wrap and a furnace
filter whistle that can be self-installed to see immediate
savings.
The Home Energy House Call program is offered to Duke Energy
customers in single-family homes, condominiums, townhomes or
manufactured homes who have an electric water heater, electric heat
or central air conditioning.
