Home performance is a holistic approach to identifying and addressing energy efficiency, comfort, health, and safety-related issues to make a home perform better.

In British Columbia, the industry is made up of several retrofit sectors that work together to achieve this whole-home performance.

Achieving a high level of home performance requires the application of building science principles such as house-as-a-system, and requires retrofit sectors to work together for multiple-home upgrades rather than isolated one-off retrofits.
