Services for homeowners
EnerGuide Rating System (ERS) Evaluations
An EnerGuide Rating System (ERS) Evaluation is the first step in smart renovations. prairieHOUSE is a licensed service organization of NRCan for delivery of ERS Evaluations and works with a team of registered energy advisors.
ERS evaluations provide homeowners with a clear picture of their home’s current energy consumption. The evaluation comes with an official EnerGuide rating, information sheet, and label for your home.
An EnerGuide home evaluation helps take the guesswork out of upgrades that can lower utility costs, increase comfort, improve durability, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Unexpectedly high energy bills
