Refrigerators

Number of refrigerators used

Test all units five years or older. If any unit was not tested, please use a web-based database to determine annual usage.

Existing Refrigerator and Freezer Testing Data

kWh Guidelines for Replacement: Test units for as long as possible but factor the test results back to a one hour reading. In order to meet the daily minimum guidelines for replacement the kWh must reach the kWh/Hour Minimum listed below by the end of one hour of monitoring. If at any time during the first hour of monitoring the meter reaches the kWh/Hour Minimum, the tester will indicate that the refrigerator is likely to qualify for replacement.

To get KWH/Hour test results:

Divide total kWh recorded by the monitor, by the number of minutes that the monitor has been on. Your answer will be the number of kWhs consumed per minute. Multiply this by 60 minutes to get the kWh usage for one hour. This is shown by the formula below. (Refer to chart on page 4-54 of the Policy and Procedures Manual)

Total kWhs recorded by monitor = kWhs per minute x 60 minutes = kWh per one hour

Number of minutes monitored

Heat Pump Water Heater (HPWH)

Once "No" is an answer to any question or if the customer's home is for sale, stop asking questions in this section and proceed to the Cooling Assessment.

40-50 Gallon

The WARM Program auditor has explained to me how a heat pump water heater operates and how it can help reduce my electric usage. The auditor has also provided me with instructions on how to maintain the water heater to ensure its efficient operation. I agree to the installation of the heat pump water heater and I or another member of my household agrees to perform required water heater maintenance that includes regularly changing the filter and periodically checking to make sure the unit is draining properly.

Cooling Assessment

kWh

Cooling Load Reduction Measures: Summer Seasonal use of 2,000 kWh or more qualifies for roof coat/window film, ACs and/or shell measures if related to cooling.


Room AC units:Is the EER on the existing room AC 6 or lower as labeled, calculated or metered? If so, it can be replaced with an Energy Star rated unit, but the Summer Seasonal Use (kWh) must be 2,000 or more to replace 1 unit and 2,500 to replace 2 units and 3,000 to replace 3 units.


Unit Watts EER = BTU/hr Watts Replace AC? Current Size BTU/hr Current Location New Size BTU/hr Installed Location Replace Filter? Clean Filter?

Central AC: Replacement determined by kWh use and the SEER (age and efficiency) of the existing unit. Replace SEER 8 or less with SEER 13 or higher. Replacement requires FirstEnergy approval. Please note: Customer must have at least 3,000 kWh of summer use in order to qualify for replacement.

If no, install cover.

Duct work Sealing and/or Duct Installation: Are there obvious duct leaks in any duct work that is outside the thermal boundary?

Heat Pump: Replacement determined by kWh use and the HSPF (age and efficiency) of the existing unit. Replace HSPF 9 or less with HSPF 13 or higher. Replacement requires FirstEnergy approval. Please note: Customer must have at least 4,500 kWh of seasonal use in order to qualify for replacement.

Ductless Mini-Split Heat Pump - Replacement requires FirstEnergy approval. To qualify for installation, the customer must have at kWh of total seasonal use and either installed electric baseboard heat, an electric furnace or electric thermal storage units as their primary heat source. If any question is answered with a "No", proceed to the next section of the audit.
Is the customer a homeowner and the home is not for sale?
Does the customer currently use electric baseboard heat, an electric furnace or electric thermal storage heat units?
Does the customer understand that the heat coming from a mini-split heat pump may feel different than their current heating and is receptive to the change?
Does the customer understand that there could be weather conditions when the mini-split may not satisfy their heating needs and it should be turned off?
Can the existing heat be used as a backup in conditions where the mini-split system will not functionefficiently (extreme cold, blowing and drifting snow, etc.)?
Is the home's electric wiring in good condition and does the panel have room for an additional breaker?
Does the floor plan of the heating areas being considered allow a sufficient flow of heat to satisfy the customer's comfort needs?
Is there sufficient space to mount indoor components and to allow air to circulate to and from the units?
Is there adequate space to install the outdoor unit in an area where it is not near sources of heat, steam or flammable gas?
Is the customer capable of efficiently using the remote control for the unit?
Is the customer willing/capable of cleaning the interior removable filters on a monthly basis and keeping the outdoor compressor free from yard debris/leaves, snow, etc.?
Do you, as the auditor, firmly believe that the installation of a mini-split system will lower the customer's electric heat kWh consumption?

The WARM Program auditor has explained to me how the ductless mini-split heater operates and how it can help reduce my electric usage. The auditor has also provided me with instructions on how to maintain the ductless mini-split to ensure its efficient operation. I agree to the installation of the ductless mini-split heater and I or another member of my household agrees to perform required maintenance that includes regularly changing the filters and periodically checking to make sure the outdoor compressor is free from yard debris and/or snow.

Electric Heat:

Note: If PCAP customer answers Yes, good opportunity to explain his/her program responsibilities.

Fossil Fuel Heating Assessment

Structure Assessment

A blower door test must be conducted if: the home has installed electric heat, AC is present with summer seasonal use of at least 2000 kWh, or electric space heaters are present with winter seasonal use of at least 2000 kWh. Use the Blower Door Testing Information Sheetto document the Building Airflow Standard (BAS), and the testing results.

If the blower door test indicates air sealing is to be performed, indicate location of air leaks.
