HERS Rating Company provides certified HERS Index ratings throughout Jamaica Plain, established in the 19th century as one of America’s first streetcar suburbs and home to much of Boston’s Emerald Necklace of parks.

In climate zone 5A, our RESNET-accredited raters deliver fast, accurate energy ratings for these older wood-frame homes while keeping projects compliant with Boston’s energy code.

Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code in Jamaica Plain

Boston has adopted the Specialized Opt-in Stretch Energy Code (225 CMR Ch. 22), built on IECC 2021, requiring new construction and major renovations to be verified by a certified HERS rater. Jamaica Plain projects must meet air-tightness targets confirmed by blower door testing and duct leakage testing — important work in the neighborhood’s century-old wood-frame housing stock. We provide all documentation required by the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department.
