Do you need an Assessment or a Rating?

Existing home owners generally prefer an Energy Assessment.

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 Assessment, 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 Assessment because it’s cheaper and energy upgrades could reduce a home’s energy costs by $100′s or $1000′s each year.

These Energy Assessments reduce your impact on our environment, saves money on your bills, adds value to your home, and makes your living spaces more comfortable today. Check out how Allterra can assist with your energy assessments.
