Meet the person behind your energy audit
Hi, I'm Paul Rodgers. I started California Home Energy Wise because most energy audits felt like sales pitches in disguise. I wanted something different — a straightforward, no-pressure assessment that tells you exactly where your home or small business stands. No upselling. No product quotas. Just honest data about your energy use, delivered with AI-powered precision and a human touch.
What makes an energy audit actually useful?
It starts with the right question. Most audits tell you what's wrong. Paul's approach focuses on what will actually make a difference for your home and budget.
No sales pitch, just data
We don't sell insulation or windows. You get an objective report, nothing more.
Thermal imaging walkthrough
We spot hidden drafts and missing insulation with a high-resolution thermal camera.
Blower door test
We pressurize your home to measure how airtight it really is.
Utility bill breakdown
We analyze your last 12 months of bills to find patterns and savings.
Prioritized recommendations
You get a clear list ranked by impact and cost, not a laundry list of upgrades.
Local rebate guidance
We help you understand what SMUD and state programs can cover.
What clients say about an audit report
Here's what happens when you get an honest look at your home's energy use. No sugarcoating, no sales pitch — just useful answers.
The report showed me exactly which windows were costing me the most. I replaced two of them and my heating bill dropped noticeably that winter.

Homeowner, Folsom
I'd heard about energy audits but expected a sales pitch. Paul walked me through the findings and never once pushed a product. Just the facts.
David K.
Small business owner, Sacramento
We bought an older home and had no idea where the drafts were coming from. The thermal imaging found them in minutes. Totally worth it.
Maria G.
Homeowner, Elk Grove
The AI breakdown made it simple to understand. I finally knew which upgrades would actually pay off and which weren't worth the money.

Homeowner, Roseville
Most auditors rush. We don't.
Paul's inspections are thorough because he treats every home like his own. Here's a look at what that attention looks like in the field.
