REScheck vs. COMcheck: What’s the Difference?
These are the two standard software tools plan reviewers accept for energy code compliance. Developed by the DOE, they let a Plymouth County project demonstrate that its envelope (and, for commercial, lighting and mechanical) meets the IECC.
What is a COMcheck?
COMcheck is DOE software for commercial buildings and high-rise residential (four stories or more). It checks the building envelope, interior and exterior lighting, and mechanical systems against the IECC or ASHRAE Standard 90.1, and can trade off components across the design.
What is a REScheck?
REScheck is the DOE’s residential compliance tool. It covers one- and two-family dwellings and low-rise multifamily (three stories or fewer), using a UA trade-off so a stronger wall or roof can make up for a weaker window while the overall envelope still meets the IECC.
Is a REScheck Right for Your East Bridgewater Project?
REScheck is the simplest path for smaller residential projects in East Bridgewater 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
- Finished basements, attic conversions, and dormer additions on existing homes
- Projects where insulation and window trade-offs are enough to demonstrate compliance
- Window and insulation upgrades that must be documented for a building permit
- Permit applications needing residential envelope documentation on the prescriptive or UA trade-off path
Commercial Work That Needs a COMcheck in East Bridgewater
COMcheck is required for commercial and larger projects in East Bridgewater. Reach for a COMcheck when your project involves:
- Envelope work on commercial structures requiring IECC or ASHRAE 90.1 compliance
- Commercial buildings — offices, retail, restaurants, warehouses, and mixed-use
- High-rise residential buildings of four stories or more
- Restaurant build-outs and retail white-box improvements
- New mechanical (HVAC) or service water heating systems in commercial spaces
