What we deliver
A stamped, signed compliance report matched to your plans and ready to upload with your Tisbury building permit application.
What Is a REScheck and What Is a COMcheck?
These are the two standard software tools plan reviewers accept for energy code compliance. Developed by the DOE, they let a Dukes County project demonstrate that its envelope (and, for commercial, lighting and mechanical) meets the IECC.
What is a COMcheck?
COMcheck handles commercial work and high-rise residential of four stories or more. The DOE tool evaluates envelope, lighting (interior and exterior), and mechanical systems against either the IECC or ASHRAE 90.1, with trade-offs allowed across components.
What is a REScheck?
For homes, REScheck is the go-to. This DOE program checks residential envelopes — detached houses and multifamily up to three stories — and allows insulation and fenestration trade-offs to show prescriptive or component-based IECC compliance.
REScheck Projects in Tisbury
REScheck is the simplest path for smaller residential projects in Tisbury that do not trigger a full performance-path energy rating. It is typically the right tool when your project is:
- New residential construction or an addition under 1,200 square feet that does not require a HERS rating
- Detached accessory structures with conditioned space
- Multifamily buildings of three stories or fewer
- Finished basements, attic conversions, and dormer additions on existing homes
- Permit applications needing residential envelope documentation on the prescriptive or UA trade-off path
Commercial Work That Needs a COMcheck in Tisbury
COMcheck is required for commercial and larger projects in Tisbury. Reach for a COMcheck when your project involves:
- Envelope work on commercial structures requiring IECC or ASHRAE 90.1 compliance
- Tenant fit-outs and interior or exterior lighting alterations
- Commercial buildings — offices, retail, restaurants, warehouses, and mixed-use
- New mechanical (HVAC) or service water heating systems in commercial spaces
- High-rise residential buildings of four stories or more
