Including the HERS
The Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index is the nationally recognized, industry standard that is used to measure a home’s energy efficiency. This system is also used for inspecting and calculating a home’s energy performance.
Having a HERS rating for your house tells you how efficient your home is operating, and where you can find areas to increase energy savings. Overall, a HERS rating will help you anticipate the costs of energy bills and efficiency upgrades.
The U.S. Department of Energy established that a typical resale home has a score around 130 on the HERS Index, while a standard new home is awarded a rating of 100. By adding more energy efficient options, you can have your home rated lower. The lower the number, the more energy efficient the home. Therefore, a home with a HERS Index Score of 70 is 30% more energy efficient than a standard new home.
The average HERS rating of a Revolution Home is 62 which is 38% more efficient than other New Homes.
