What is HERS? A HERS Rating? A HERS Rater?
HERS = Home Energy Rating System
A HERS Rating = An energy performance diagnostic test using
approved protocols, procedures and the necessary tools and
equipment to verify that the energy consuming component(s) of
a home or building is performing most efficiently and has a
passing result. The installer is responsible for making any
corrections to achieve passing results. The HERS rater can only
conduct the rating or test.
A HERS Rater = A third party independent verifier trained and
certified by a CEC (California Energy Commission) approved
provider. In our case that is CalCERTS, Inc. The HERS rater
performs ratings or tests on various energy consuming
components of a home or building. The most common of these
is the HVAC (heating ventilating and air conditioning) system(s).
Regardless who pays for the HERS rating the HERS rater's first
and primary obligation is to the owner of the system(s).
Green Energy Future is an approved HERS rating company
providing HVAC and building professionals and owner builders
