This paper presents test methods and results of assessment data necessary for determination of building energy consumption, based on measurements in an occupied typical single-family house in Poland. Comprehensive on-site measurements included the building envelope, heating system, domestic hot water system, ventilation system with heat recovery and indoor environment quality. A new wireless measurement system was used. The results obtained from the thermal diagnostics were used to analyze the energy consumption of the house in four different successive building modernization stages. The steps undertaken included improvement of wall and window insulation, installation of mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, improvement of house airtightness and replacement of the boiler and the hot water storage vessel with more efficient ones. Such steps are typical activities undertaken without a prior energy analysis by owners of single-family houses. Before thermal renovation the indicator of non-renewable primary energy was 243 kWh/(m(2) y) and after renovation this decreased to 147 kWh/(m(2) y). Proper selection of thermo-modernization measures would allow to reach the lower value of this indicator. However, it still would be higher than the required for newly built single-family houses in Poland. The execution of thermal diagnostics both before and after thermal renovation of the house enable the correct performance of that process and the achievement of greater energy savings.
