Welcome to Home Energy Efficiency Consultants, a Massachusetts-based energy consulting firm specializing in HERS Index verification, performance testing, and energy code compliance. We work with homeowners, builders, architects, and developers across the state to ensure residential projects meet RESNET standards and comply with Massachusetts energy codes.
Whether your project requires a HERS Rating, blower door testing, duct leakage testing, or full energy modeling, our certified team delivers accurate reporting, fast turnaround times, and clear guidance through the compliance process.
Energy efficiency plays a central role in modern residential construction across Massachusetts. With rising utility costs and increasingly strict enforcement of the Massachusetts State Building Code, builders and homeowners must demonstrate verified energy performance.
A professionally completed HERS Rating measures how efficiently a home uses energy compared to a standard reference home. Lower HERS scores indicate better performance, improved comfort, and eligibility for incentive programs such as Mass Save.
Our consulting services help ensure your home meets or exceeds requirements under the Stretch Energy Code and aligns with the IECC adopted statewide.
Home Energy Efficiency Consultants provides comprehensive testing and verification services for residential projects throughout Massachusetts.
Our team includes:
We work closely with builders to avoid inspection delays, failed tests, and costly rework.
Verified energy efficiency reduces heating and cooling demand, leading to long-term utility savings.
Proper air sealing, insulation, and HVAC performance create consistent indoor temperatures and healthier living conditions.
Homes with documented HERS Ratings and energy certifications are more attractive to buyers and developers.
Reduced energy consumption lowers emissions and supports Massachusetts’ sustainability goals.
We follow a structured approach to ensure energy efficiency and compliance throughout your project:
We analyze construction plans and create an energy model to identify efficiency opportunities and ensure code compliance from the start.
On-site inspections verify proper installation of insulation, air barriers, and mechanical systems before final testing.
We conduct blower door and duct leakage tests, then issue the official HERS Rating confirming compliance.
We assist with enrollment in programs such as Mass Save, 45L Energy Efficient Home Tax Credits, and other state or federal incentives.

Here are a few common questions builders and homeowners ask about code compliance and testing.
A HERS rating is a home energy rating used to measure energy performance and support certain energy code or program requirements.
Many new construction and renovation projects require blower door testing to verify the building meets air leakage standards at final inspection.
REScheck is a residential energy code compliance report often used for permit documentation on qualifying residential projects.
