Today its older brick rowhouses sit alongside a fast-growing wave of new waterfront construction. In climate zone 5A, our RESNET-accredited raters deliver fast, accurate energy ratings across both, keeping every project compliant with Boston’s energy code.
Whether you are renovating a 19th-century rowhouse near Maverick Square or rating a new harborfront condo development along the East Boston waterfront, our certified HERS raters provide every document the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department requires for permits and final inspections.
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. East Boston projects must meet air-tightness targets confirmed by blower door testing and duct leakage testing — key for both exposed waterfront new builds and older rowhouses. We provide all documentation required by the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department.
