REScheck & COMcheck West Stockbridge MA
Fast, accurate REScheck and COMcheck energy code compliance reports for residential and commercial projects in West Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

What we deliver
A stamped, signed compliance report matched to your plans and ready to upload with your West Stockbridge 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 Berkshire County project demonstrate that its envelope (and, for commercial, lighting and mechanical) meets the IECC.
What is a COMcheck?
For commercial and four-plus-story residential buildings, COMcheck is required. It documents envelope, lighting, and mechanical compliance against the IECC or ASHRAE Standard 90.1 and produces the certificates a commercial plan reviewer expects.
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 West Stockbridge Project?
REScheck is the simplest path for smaller residential projects in West Stockbridge 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
- Additions, alterations, or renovations to a one- or two-family home
- Window and insulation upgrades that must be documented for a building permit
- Projects where insulation and window trade-offs are enough to demonstrate compliance
Commercial Work That Needs a COMcheck in West Stockbridge
COMcheck is required for commercial and larger projects in West Stockbridge. Reach for a COMcheck when your project involves:
- Medical, dental, and professional office construction
- High-rise residential buildings of four stories or more
- Commercial buildings — offices, retail, restaurants, warehouses, and mixed-use
- New mechanical (HVAC) or service water heating systems in commercial spaces
- Envelope work on commercial structures requiring IECC or ASHRAE 90.1 compliance
