Minnesota Power, an ALLETE Company

A Home Health Check (HHC) can help you determine how you use energy and what you can do to get the most for your energy dollar. Our friendly and professional auditors will help you identify ways to save energy in your home and you’ll receive energy-saving products (at no charge).

How to request a HHC:

Your energy auditor will help you find out how to get the most for your energy dollar. One of our friendly energy auditors will visit your home (virtually or in-person) and analyze how you use energy, determine your electric energy use per appliance and develop an action plan for saving energy and managing costs.

You'll learn how to optimize your electric usage by changing the way you use appliances through day-to-day choices, how to determine the "right fit" for investments in energy-saving equipment, heating and cooling, appliances and lighting, and how to take advantage of Minnesota Power's rebates.
