HOW LONG DOES A COMMERCIAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY ASSESSMENT TAKE?
For a Deemed-To-Satisfy assessment, it typically takes from one to three hours, depending on the design complexity, number of floors, range of building materials, and number of windows. A Thermal Simulation Assessment can take from half a day to several days. This time includes preparing the data for entry into the program, inputting the data, running the thermal simulation software, simulating variations to achieve Code Compliance at lowest cost, discussing suitable options with the client, and writing the Report.
