What is "energuide"

EnerGuide is the official Government of Canada mark associated with the labelling and rating of the energy consumption or energy efficiency of specific products. To find the percent of efficiency you do power out divided by power in. EnerGuide labelling exists for appliances, heating and cooling equipment, houses and vehicles.

EnerGuide includes a house energy evaluation, including tests to find air leakage and the energy efficiency of its heating. It was designed to help Canadians reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and to save energy. To accomplish the same goals for new home construction the EnerGuide for New Houses program was initiated in 2006.

The new Saskatchewan EnerGuide for Houses program is active from April 1, 2011 to October 31, 2013.
