HERS Rating West End, MA

HERS Rating Services in West End, MA

HERS Rating Company provides certified HERS Index ratings throughout Boston’s West End, a neighborhood reshaped by one of the most sweeping urban-renewal projects in American history. In the late 1950s the city razed a dense Italian and Jewish enclave, displacing more than 20,000 residents, and rebuilt the area with the mid-century apartment towers that still define it today. In climate zone 5A, our RESNET-accredited raters deliver fast, accurate energy ratings across these high-rise residential buildings while keeping projects compliant with Boston’s energy code.

Whether you are renovating units in a Charles River Park tower or rating a new residential building near North Station, our certified HERS raters in the West End provide every document the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department requires for permits and final inspections.

Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code in West End

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. West End projects must meet air-tightness targets confirmed by blower door testing and duct leakage testing — key for the neighborhood’s large multifamily apartment towers. We provide all documentation required by the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department.
