Project description

Installing contractor

As HERS raters we provide third party verification for home and business owners to test duct leakage, refrigerant charge and in some cases airflow and energy use.  HERS verification are also needed to complete building permits in certain cases.  If you don't know which verification you need, give us a call at 1-800-597-7153 and we can walk you through the process.

On January 1st, 2010 new Title 24, building code standards came into effect.  HERS ratings are required in certain climate zones now, and will be required in all climate zones in the next code cycle. According to the California Energy Commission, the average duct system leaks 30% in CA homes.  So if you are a home owner you want to make sure your system is not leaking and as a contractor you can tell customers that duct leakage will be verified by a third party to ensure quality.

To find out your climate zone or what HERS testing is required, call now 1-800-597-7153 EXT 9.

HERS II Rater is the title for a Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Whole House Energy Rater.  A HERS II rater takes a standarized approach to model a home with computer software after diagnostically testing and measuring the home.  CalRATEPro is the computer software used to generate your HERS index score.  Pictured to the right is a HERS Index and a New Home would score 100 and the closer to 0 the less energy a home uses.

HERS II Rating uses the only state approved protocals and software that generates a list of cost effective energy improvements that will pay for themselves through lower energy bills. This clearly identifys what investments into your home will be cost effective.
