Cain CAD provides Home Energy Rating System (HERS) compliance verification services. A HERS rating is a standardized assessment used to measure and quantify the energy efficiency of residential buildings in the United States. It involves a comprehensive evaluation conducted by certified HERS raters who assess various aspects of the home, including insulation, windows, heating and cooling systems, air leakage, and overall energy performance. The rating results in a numerical score, typically ranging from 0 to 150, where lower scores indicate higher energy efficiency.
The HERS rating provides homeowners, builders, and prospective buyers with valuable information about a home’s energy consumption and operating costs. It also offers recommendations for improving energy efficiency and reducing utility bills. HERS ratings are often required for new construction projects and may also be used for existing homes undergoing energy upgrades or renovations.
