Energy Efficiency Maximized Through RESNET Challenge
The award winners of the 2014 RESNET Cross Border Home Builder Challenge, which helps promote the utilization of the HERS (Home Energy Rating System) Index have been announced by Steve Baden, executive director of RESNET, and John Godden, president of the Canadian counterpart CRESNET at the RESNET annual conference in Atlanta, Ga.
“With well over 1 million homes rated in the U.S., the Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index is the industry standard by which a home's energy efficiency is now being measured in the U.S. and Canada. It’s also the nationally recognized system for inspecting and calculating a home's energy performance,” Baden said.
