Do you need an Audit or a Rating?

-> Existing home owners generally prefer an Energy Audit.

-> Builders would need an Energy Rating. The Energy rating goes through a standard Quality Control check with local RESNET and HERS providers to ensure accuracy across local building standards. The Energy Rating will return a HERS score (from 0-200) based on home dimensions and/or blueprints. Modeling characteristics are verified by blower door and IR thermography during construction so you can deliver an EnergyStar rated home.

-> Realtors, loan officers, individual home buyers, and some home sellers would all likely be interested in an Energy Rating over an Energy Audit, although both could apply. Please call or contact us for more information.

  • If you know your client will apply for tax credits, energy efficient mortgages, or any home owners who desire an energy improvement mortgage, you'll need a certified Energy Rating.
  • However, many existing home sales are looking towards an Energy Audit because it's cheaper and energy upgrades could reduce a home's energy costs by $100's or $1000's each year.
  • Who would have thought that by reducing your impact on our environment, saving money on your bills, adding value to your home, and making your living spaces more comfortable today could also help your home sell faster in a tough market?
