HERS Ratings Kansas City | Central Energy Audits

Kansas City HERS Ratings by Central Energy Audits provide accurate, certified energy performance scores for new construction and major renovation projects. Our certified HERS Raters help builders, architects, and code officials ensure residential properties meet energy code compliance, qualify for ENERGY STAR®, and access rebates.

 

What Is a HERS Rating?

A Home Energy Rating System (HERS) score is a standardized measurement of a home’s energy efficiency. The lower the score, the more efficient the home. HERS ratings are nationally recognized and are often required for:

  • IECC energy code compliance
     

  • ENERGY STAR® certification
     

  • Builder incentive programs
     

  • Green building certifications (LEED, NGBS)
     

We provide full testing, scoring, documentation, and consultation to help you meet these standards quickly and affordably.

 

Who Needs a HERS Rating in Kansas City?

  • Residential builders and developers
     

  • Architects and energy consultants
     

  • Homeowners constructing or remodeling
     

  • Municipal code inspectors and energy program managers
     

Whether you’re constructing a new subdivision or a single custom home in Kansas City, we ensure you meet all local and national energy requirements.

 

Our HERS Rating Process

Step 1 – Plan Review & Project Intake

We review construction drawings, insulation plans, and HVAC designs to prepare for energy modeling and inspection timelines.

Step 2 – Onsite Testing

Using blower door tests, duct leakage tests, and thermal imaging, we measure real-world system performance and building envelope integrity.

We deliver an official HERS Index Score with documentation suitable for submission to building departments and ENERGY STAR® verification.
