Energy Advisor (EA)
If you are thinking of building or renovating a home, consider options for improving your home’s energy efficiency. Financial rebates and incentives are available from BC Hydro and Fortis BC. These financial incentives include working with an EA.
Energy Advisors must have a strong understanding of building science principles, write and pass Natural Resources Canada’s exams (Foundation Level and Energy Advisor) and work within a strict code of ethics. They must also be registered through a licensed Service Organization.
Tracy is registered through Home Tech Energy Solutions.

As a registered and licensed Energy Advisor Tracy can provide both energy modelling and airtightness testing for new homes. These two services are needed to demonstrate compliance under the BC Energy Step Code for Part 9 - Residential Buildings.
Municipalities throughout BC have had implemented different requirements and timelines, but the entire province will be meeting Step Code 3 by January 2022.
