New homes under construction today have significant focus on energy efficiency. Depending on the results of the energy calculations for your Project, your building or units may require testing by a HERS Rater to verify the performance of the home’s energy efficiency.
PIW’s Home Energy Rating System (HERS) raters will verify the performance of the building’s energy efficiency. A HERS rater certified by CHEERS and Calcerts in California, and RESNET outside of California, will provide all the necessary testing, including:
- QII – Quality Insulation Installation
- Duct Leakage Testing
- Blower Door Tests
- Cooling Coil Airflow Verification
- Fan Watt Draw Efficacy Verification
- Refrigerant Charge Verification
- Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and Mechanical Ventilation Verification
- SEER/EER Verification
- Domestic Hot Water Systems Verifications
- Solar (PV) Verification
- Cal Certs Certifications
- Other tests available on request
