Score a home's electrification readiness against the Energy petal, the 300 block of S Ogden Ave, Hilltop
The weatherstrip and insulation visits on the 300 block of S Ogden Ave, Hilltop need a target list for the bigger job: which home's furnace is oldest, which roof hosts solar best, which panel is ready. One walk-through audit produces that ranked list โ and every finding routes into a doing job, not a filing cabinet. Standard: ASHRAE Level 1 energy audit + Living Building Challenge Energy petal screening. Proof: Completed Energy-petal checklist with photos per system + Ranked retrofit list naming the matching doing job for every shortfall + Occupant acknowledgment photo or note Method (ASHRAE Level 1 energy audit + Living Building Challenge Energy petal screening.): 1. Walk the home with the occupant and record envelope condition, heating/cooling equipment ages, roof orientation/shading and panel labels (photograph labels only โ do not open equipment). 2. Score each system against the Energy-petal checklist (envelope, electrification, generation, storage). 3. Rank the shortfalls into a sequenced retrofit list, naming the matching job for each (seal -> insulate -> heat pump -> solar). 4. Deliver the one-page scorecard and photograph it handed over. Done when: Completed Energy-petal checklist with photos per system + Ranked retrofit list naming the matching doing job for every shortfall + Occupant acknowledgment photo or note
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 60โ120 minutes. Method of record: ASHRAE Level 1 energy audit
Bring
- tablet/clipboard
- tape measure
- light meter (lighting scope)
- clamp thermometer (refrigeration scope)
- 12-month utility bills
- camera
- ladder + spotter (high fixtures)
Steps
- 1. Confirm the address; arrange a staff escort for mechanical/back-of-house.
- 2. Photograph HVAC, lighting, envelope, and any in-scope systems.
- 3. Inventory systems: HVAC type + age; lighting fixture count/type/wattage; refrigeration units; envelope condition.
- 4. Summarize 12 months of utility use (kWh / therms) from the bills.
- 5. Take the in-scope measurements (light levels, unit temperatures, seal condition).
- 6. Rank no-cost/low-cost measures, then capital measures, with rough savings logic.
- 7. Enter inventory, measurements, utility summary, photos, and the ranked measure list; sign.
If it does not match the plan
- Knob-and-tube, ungrounded or overheated wiring, scorched outlets, or a hot electrical panel -> STOP: do not operate the circuit; route to a licensed electrician and restrict use (NEC / fire hazard).
- Gas odor, or a combustion appliance with absent/blocked venting (backdrafting / CO risk) -> STOP: evacuate, ventilate, call the gas utility. The agent escalates, never relights or adjusts gas.
- Any live-electrical/gas hazard -> document, do not touch, flag for a licensed pro.
- Refrigeration unit out of food-safe range -> flag as both energy and food-safety risk.
- Suspected asbestos/lead in materials -> flag and stop.
What counts as done
- System inventory complete for the in-scope equipment
- 12-month utility use summary recorded
- In-scope measurements recorded with units
- Ranked no-cost/low-cost + capital measure list produced
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
