Energy Efficiency Rating Service in Los Angeles
What is a HERS Rating?
A HERS Rating goes beyond being just an energy score – it’s a practical way to increase comfort and reduce your energy costs. Created by the Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET), the HERS Index is the industry standard for evaluating energy efficiency. After our certified home energy raters complete a thorough evaluation, you’ll receive a score between 1 and 150 that reflects how energy-efficient your property is. A lower score indicates better energy efficiency, leading to lower utility bills and greater comfort. Whether you’re a homeowner aiming to save, a builder working to meet energy codes, or a home buyer looking for long-term cost savings, a HERS Rating unlocks valuable insights about your property’s energy use.
Assessing Energy Efficiency
The goal of HERS testing is to provide a reliable energy efficiency rating for properties, helping builders, business owners, real estate professionals, and homeowners assess energy consumption. The process involves a certified rater conducting a comprehensive evaluation, which results in a home energy score. This score reflects the property’s energy usage. A lower score suggests less energy consumption, leading to reduced utility bills and greater comfort for the residents or tenants.
When you turn to HERS Raters for a HERS Rating in Los Angeles, you gain a detailed, actionable plan to improve your property’s energy efficiency. This evaluation provides clear recommendations on areas where energy improvements are needed, helping you take the right steps toward lowering your energy usage. This insight empowers you to make decisions that lead to lower energy costs, increased property value, and improved comfort. We assess factors such as HVAC systems, ductwork, insulation, and air leaks, making it easier for you to target areas that need attention.
Helping Homeowners Save on Energy Bills
Lowering your energy expenses has never been easier. A HERS Rating pinpoints the specific areas in your home or business where energy is being used inefficiently. With the essential data provided by the HERS test, you’ll be able to make informed choices that lead to measurable savings.
We carefully assess a number of important factors, including:
Appliances & Lighting
HVAC Systems

A HERS Rating is about more than reducing energy bills – it’s about creating a more sustainable future. Builders who emphasize energy efficiency can drastically minimize a home’s environmental footprint while enhancing its appeal to potential buyers. Energy-efficient homes consume less power, lower carbon emissions, and reduce fossil fuel dependency, leading to a cleaner environment. They also improve indoor air quality through better ventilation and efficient HVAC systems. For builders, a lower HERS score increases the marketability of the property while aligning with eco-friendly standards like ENERGY STAR® or LEED certification.
