At HERS Rating Specialist, we offer expert consulting and reporting services for COMcheck and REScheck, two vital tools for ensuring compliance with energy codes. Whether you’re working on a new construction project or a renovation, these reports are essential for demonstrating that your building meets the energy efficiency standards required by the 2018 IECC, Stretch Code, and other local energy codes.
Both COMcheck and REScheck are software programs designed to help builders, contractors, and energy consultants determine if a building complies with the 2018 IECC and local energy codes. These programs provide detailed reports that outline whether your building meets the required energy efficiency standards and can identify areas where improvements are necessary.
1. Compliance with Energy Codes
Massachusetts’ energy codes, including the 2018 IECC and the Stretch Code, require detailed documentation to ensure buildings meet energy performance standards. COMcheck and REScheck reports are used to prove that your project meets these standards, which is crucial for obtaining building permits and inspections.
2. Efficient Energy Design
These reports help identify energy inefficiencies in a building’s design. By using COMcheck and REScheck, we can find opportunities to optimize energy usage and ensure that your building is as energy-efficient as possible, which translates into lower energy costs for the long term.
3. Access to Incentives
Meeting energy code requirements through these reports also ensures eligibility for energy efficiency incentives, such as Mass Save rebates and 45L Tax Credits, which can significantly reduce the cost of your construction project.
4. Streamlined Process
Our team’s experience with COMcheck and REScheck ensures that we can prepare accurate, complete reports quickly, helping to streamline the permitting and approval process for your project.
We provide a comprehensive service for COMcheck and REScheck reports, ensuring that your project complies with all relevant energy codes. Here’s how we do it:
We begin by reviewing your building plans and discussing your project goals. Our team will assess the building’s layout, systems, and components to identify potential areas of concern regarding energy efficiency.
Using COMcheck for commercial projects or REScheck for residential projects, we enter the necessary data and perform the energy modeling required for code compliance. This process ensures that all energy-efficiency measures are in place to meet or exceed local and state requirements.
Once the report is generated, we review the results and discuss any necessary changes to ensure compliance. If any adjustments are needed, we’ll provide recommendations to optimize the building’s energy efficiency.
Once we have finalized the data, we’ll deliver the COMcheck or REScheck report to you, ensuring that all energy code requirements are met and your project is set for approval.
If you’re looking to ensure your project complies with energy codes and qualifies for incentives, HERS Rating Specialist is here to help.
