Whole-House Home Energy Rating
Find out your home’s “Energy MPG”
A Whole-House Home Energy Rating (HERS II) provides a comprehensive analysis of your home’s energy use that can help you on the path toward an energy upgrade. The rating is conducted by a Whole-House Home Energy Rater and can show you:
- How much energy your home needs to operate
- How your home’s energy performance compares to others based on a standardized scale
- What improvements you can make to improve your home’s energy performance
Raters may work with Participating Contractors to help a homeowner complete an energy upgrade and receive incentives; however, Home Energy Ratings are not required in order to receive utility incentives. See Frequently Asked Questions for details.
You might be interested in scheduling a Whole-House Home Energy Rating if:
- You want a comprehensive analysis of your home’s systems to help plan home improvements and your energy upgrade
- You want to know how much energy you can expect to buy in order to operate your home
- You want to know how your home compares with others in the state and your area
- You plan to sell your home and want to show potential buyers how your home’s energy use compares to others
How a Whole-House Home Energy Rating works
- Submit an online application for the Whole-House Home Energy Rating rebate
- Schedule an appointment with California Living and Energy
- The Rater completes an initial “test-in” assessment within 45 days of your application to qualify you for a $300 rebate
- You may then contact a participating contractor to plan and complete an energy upgrade to qualify for utility incentives. Your participating contractor may conduct a separate analysis of your home in order to come up with a work plan and estimated cost for your project.
- After your upgrade is finished, the Rater returns for a final “test-out” rating to qualify you for an additional $200 rebate
