Applied Building Science

At Northern Energy Solutions, we are an applied building science firm — not just an insulation contractor. That means we approach every project with diagnostic tools and scientific methodology. We don't guess where the problems are; we find them with precision, then prescribe the right solution.

What's Included in Our Energy Audit

Our free energy assessment gives you a complete picture of your property's energy performance, along with clear recommendations for improvement.

• ✓Thermal imaging (infrared camera) to visualize heat loss and air leaks
• ✓Visual inspection of insulation, air sealing, and moisture conditions
• ✓Assessment of attic, walls, basement, crawl space, and rim joists
• ✓Identification of drafts, cold spots, and thermal bridging
• ✓Evaluation of existing insulation type, condition, and R-value
• ✓Clear, prioritized recommendations with estimated savings

Why Diagnostics Matter

Adding insulation without understanding the underlying issues is like treating symptoms without diagnosing the disease. Our building science approach ensures every dollar you spend on weatherization delivers maximum return.

• ✓Air sealing before insulating — the order matters
• ✓Moisture management prevents mold, rot, and insulation failure
• ✓Right insulation type for each application and climate zone
• ✓Avoid over-insulating or under-insulating — both waste money
• ✓Post-installation verification ensures the work performs as expected
