Home Energy Assessment
How an energy assessment helps your home
Guessing where a house leaks is expensive. Our team uses computerized blower door testing to measure how much air your home leaks, and FLIR infrared cameras to see exactly where heat is escaping through walls, ceilings and floors.
One customer said their testing was “thorough, complete and was performed with state of the art well maintained test equipment.”
You get clear recommendations in plain language, so you can decide what to fix first and see the value of each upgrade.

Energy assessment questions, answered
Still have questions? Call (517) 962-4090 and talk to a real person.
What is a blower door test?
A calibrated fan depressurizes your home so we can measure air leakage and find the leaks that cost you the most.
What does the FLIR camera show?
It shows surface temperatures, so we can see where insulation is missing or air is leaking in or out.
Do I need an assessment before insulation work?
It is the best way to target the right areas. Ask about it when you request your free estimate.
What happens after the assessment?
We walk you through what we found and give you clear recommendations and a price, so you can decide what to fix first.
Client success stories
Homeowners feel the difference the first cold night
“I hired Midwest to spray a bonus room, add insulation in my attic area, put a membrane liner in my crawl spaces, as well as spray my rim joists. I heat with a wood boiler system and have only had to add wood to my boiler once in a week (normally fill it once a day). Everything I was promised was delivered on. I would recommend these guys to anyone.”
“Staff was knowledgeable, friendly and prompt. The Field Service Engineer who came on site took the time to explain details to me. My testing was thorough and performed with state of the art test equipment. Pricing was very reasonable for the work performed. Will use them again!”
“Midwest Insulation did a great job with encapsulation and insulation on the crawlspace under my home. They are very reasonably priced, timely and efficient. The crawlspace is now clean, dry, cobweb and bug free and all white. I would recommend Midwest Insulation to everyone.”
