What is
a Home Energy Rating?
A
HERS report
is similar to a miles-per-gallon rating on a car. HERS are programs which
provide evaluations of an individual home's energy-efficiency. A HERS report is
prepared by a trained Energy Rater. Factors such as insulation, appliance
efficiencies, window types, local climate, and utility rates are used to rate
the home and calculate energy costs.
