Natural Resources Canada’s EnerGuide label, in use for appliances and vehicles, is now available for houses.
Experts audit houses and advise homeowners on ways to improve energy efficiency and the rating of their houses while maintaining or improving indoor air quality. As more homes are rated across the country, Minister Goodale predicts energy efficiency will become an increasingly important factor in Canadians’ building, buying and renovating decisions.
The Sun Ridge Group received $105,000 from the Climate Change Action Fund to
educate homeowners, renovators, real estate agents, community based groups and First Nations about how they can play a role in meeting Canada’s climate change commitments through the EnerGuide for Houses Program.
The EnerGuide awards for vehicles recognize the most fuel-efficient vehicles in all categories and challenge car and truck makers to improve fuel efficiency.
Every new vehicle in Canada carries an EnerGuide label which identifies its fuel
efficiency rating.
