Seal the drafty storefront door and transom, downtown Worland

The energy audit found this Big Horn Avenue storefront's entry door and transom window leaking heat at every edge — sealing the commercial-grade gaps here is a different job than a home's, and it's the cheapest fix the audit found. Standard: ASHRAE Level 1 energy audit + Living Building Challenge Energy petal screening. Proof: before/after photo pairs + compression check + door-operability confirm + GPS Method (ASHRAE Level 1 energy audit + Living Building Challenge Energy petal screening.): 1. Walk the storefront and mark every draft at the entry door, transom, and display-window frame; photograph each before. 2. Clean and prep each gap so commercial-grade weatherstripping and sealant adhere. 3. Apply door-sweep, astragal weatherstripping, and sealant sized to each commercial-scale gap. 4. Verify each seal with a smoke-pencil check and confirm the door still closes/latches correctly under daily foot traffic; photograph after. Done when: before/after photo pairs + compression check + door-operability confirm + GPS

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 60–120 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. 1. Confirm the address; arrange a staff escort for mechanical/back-of-house.
2. 2. Photograph HVAC, lighting, envelope, and any in-scope systems.
3. 3. Inventory systems: HVAC type + age; lighting fixture count/type/wattage; refrigeration units; envelope condition.
4. 4. Summarize 12 months of utility use (kWh / therms) from the bills.
5. 5. Take the in-scope measurements (light levels, unit temperatures, seal condition).
6. 6. Rank no-cost/low-cost measures, then capital measures, with rough savings logic.
7. 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.
