Your Weatherization multi-tool.
The information you need, when you need it—at your fingertips. Bring references, equipment lookups, sketches, calculations, and field documentation together. Use one tool or use them all. Start with a quick equipment check or a full field visit. We build Weatherization software for independent professionals and agency teams.
Built from Andrew’s Weatherization field experience and continually improved by Sierra and Andrew. We keep the complete product affordable so independent professionals and agency teams can put it to work. We’re growing across the United States and Canada to help more people bring Weatherization to the households that need it.
All 50 states, D.C., and five U.S. territories. Now all 13 Canadian provinces and territories, too. Explore FieldScout for Canada →

U.S. tools, in one place
What’s in your Weatherization multi-tool?
Canadian accounts include HVAC Age Finder, Refrigerator / Freezer, Site Sketch, Building Science Calculators, and Jobs. See the Canadian tools and signup options.
Start with any tool. You choose which ones fit your work; Field Visit is one option in the lineup.
A Job holds the saved information and tool results for one address. Each Job has one Field Visit that you return to as the work continues, alongside calculations, equipment lookups, sketches, and assessment reports.
- ScopeBook
- Find reviewed Weatherization guidance for your jurisdiction: when to use a measure, scope language, work steps, verification, documentation, and source references. Search the component or condition in front of you, then follow the entry through the work.
- WAP Chat
- Ask Weatherization questions and get answers based on national and jurisdiction guidance, with links to the official sources, so you can read the guidance behind the answer.
- HVAC Age Finder
- Find manufacture dates and ages for supported heating and cooling equipment and water heaters. Choose the brand and product type, then enter the serial number and model when available to get the date, age, and result details.
Supported equipment
Furnaces, direct-vent furnaces, unit heaters, boilers, combi-boilers, central and room/window air conditioners, heat pumps, mini-splits, geothermal heat pumps, air handlers, packaged HVAC units, rooftop units, wall-mount HVAC units, and tank, tankless, and heat-pump water heaters.
- Refrigerator / Freezer
- Find a model’s capacity and annual energy rating for your equipment documentation, with model configuration and source details available alongside the result.
- Site Sketch
- Draw the building with floors, rooms, openings, dimensions, and field notes. Draw directly, develop a draft from Field Visit observations, or start with exterior wall geometry from Assessment Check.
- Building Science Calculators
- Calculate areas, volume, insulation quantities, air leakage, capacity conversions, and pressure values from your measurements. Copy a field note or save the result to a Job.
- Preliminary Heating Load Estimate
- Estimate the existing home’s heating loss from recorded measurements and sources. Review the calculation, explore proposed improvements separately, and save the result to its Job.
- Preliminary Ventilation Sizing & Verification
- Plan airflow, review fan operation, and compare measured delivery with the selected target. Keep the measurements and sources with a Job.
- Funding & Utility Braiding
- Choose electric and gas utilities and a retrofit to review program coverage and requirements. Build a proposed funding split and find the contacts for current funding and project approval.
- Assessment Check
- Review a completed assessment for omissions, different values, and transcription errors before submission.
- Field Visit
- Collect observations, measurements, equipment details, and safety findings, then hand off PDF, text, or HPXML 5.0 for compatible software. Weatherization JSON adds supported audit field names. Source acknowledgments.
If ScopeBook or WAP Chat isn't available for your jurisdiction yet, we'll begin work on that coverage immediately after your purchase. Coverage becomes available after review and activation; a launch date is not guaranteed.
Ready for all 56 U.S. jurisdictions. Jobs, housing-specific field workflows, Field Visit Readiness, Field Visit Exports, and national Assessment Check support the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
U.S. Field Visit. Three housing types.
Built for the home in front of you.
Housing-specific Field Visit workflows build on DOE/NREL Standard Work Specifications and real Weatherization field experience. Choose the home type when you create a Job, and the collection workflow reflects the building you are documenting.
- Site-built single-family
- Document the envelope, rooms, equipment, diagnostics, and safety findings in one property record.
- Manufactured home
- Use manufactured-home-specific collection for the center belly and wings, insulation depths, wrap condition, roof, and systems.
- Multifamily
- Keep building, unit, shared-system, and representative-space work organized within one multifamily Job.
Work your way
A quick lookup or a full day in the field.
You decide where to start. Open a tool for the task in front of you, or use a Job to organize work for a property. A Field Visit is not required to use the other tools. The Field Visit and Assessment Check steps below are part of the U.S. product; Canadian users can save equipment lookups, sketches, and calculations to Jobs.
- 01
Choose any tool
Find a scope reference, ask a question, check equipment, or draw a sketch. Use one tool or use them all.
- 02
Keep property work together
A Job keeps saved work together for one street address and city. New Jobs start with a street address, city, ZIP code, and home type in the U.S.; Canadian Jobs use a postal code. Use a tool’s Job save action to keep supported work there, or use the tools without saving. All authorized agency members can see their agency’s Jobs.
- 03
Choose Field Visit when you need it
Collect field observations and use Field Visit Readiness to find missing information and follow-up while you are still at the property.
- 04
Review and carry the work forward
Use a Field Visit Export as PDF, text, or HPXML 5.0 for compatible software. Weatherization JSON adds supported audit field names. Run Assessment Check before submission to catch omissions, different values, and transcription errors.
One complete product for every field team
For independent professionals and agency teams.
Use the full product for your country as an individual professional or bring the same capability to an agency team.
- HVAC, insulation, and home-performance contractors
- Connect equipment details, envelope observations, and measurements, with planning tools in the U.S. product. Move from field findings to a clearer next step. For example, check a Carrier furnace’s manufacture date from its brand and serial number, or calculate attic insulation quantities from your measurements.
- Energy auditors, inspectors, and building-science consultants
- Look up equipment, calculate, and build Site Sketches. In the U.S. product, also look up guidance and check assessments, or choose Field Visit when your work calls for organized field collection. On a home visit, draw the footprint in Site Sketch and keep supported equipment lookups and calculations together at the Job address.
- Weatherization agencies and field teams
- Give the people doing collection, review, and handoff the same shared Job. Manage users and billing through an Agency Lead.
We can tailor the Field Tools layout to your state, province, territory, or jurisdiction’s weatherization workflow, so the tools you need are easier to reach. Tell us how your jurisdiction works and what would help your field day.
Built to advance Weatherization
Why we keep FieldScout affordable.
Our mission is to advance Weatherization by making practical tools available to the people doing the work. We want an independent professional to have the same capability as an agency team, and we want agencies to keep more of their resources focused on serving households. Across the United States and Canada, we’re working toward the same goal: helping Weatherization reach more homes and supporting the people improving their comfort, health, and energy use.
We’re Andrew and Sierra Weuve. We build, support, and continually improve FieldScout ourselves. Every paid user receives the full product for their country and jurisdiction; team size changes the price, not the capability.
Read our story · U.S. Individual: US$50/month. Canadian Individual: C$75/month. Agency pricing includes the first paid user in either country.
