Rescheck
Rescheck was created by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to see that new structures adhere to energy efficiency demands. It can also be used to demonstrate compliance with local, state or federal energy codes for new homes, alterations or additions.
Each building assembly is assessed by Rescheck performing a U-factor x Area (UA) calculation. This calculation establishes the total heat loss (UA) in a house. If the total heat loss through the envelope of the building does not exceed the total heat loss from same building conforming to the code, then the software generates a report that declares the building is compliant with the code.
A Rescheck uses this calculated trade offs. It takes all parts of a home and puts them into an easy-to-read report with a pass or fail grade.

How fast will I get my report(s)?
Most reports are done within hours of your order. Complete plans are the biggest factor. If something's missing, I'll reach out so it doesn't sit. COMchecks typically take longer, so we ask for 1-2 business days to have those ready.
What do I need to send you?
Floor plans with square footage, window and door sizes, insulation R-values if you have them, and the project address. If you don't know every spec, I can usually work from standard code assumptions. [Here's the full checklist → /what-information-do-you-need-to-order-a-rescheck]
What is a REScheck?
A REScheck is the energy code compliance report most building departments want before they'll issue a residential permit. It shows your insulation, windows and doors meet the IECC for your climate zone. It's built in the Department of Energy's REScheck-Web software. [Full REScheck requirements guide → /rescheck-requirements]
Do I need a Manual J too?
Sometimes. A REScheck covers the building envelope. A Manual J sizes the heating and cooling equipment. Many jurisdictions want both for new construction and additions, and some only ask for the REScheck. If your building department mentions HVAC sizing or load calculations, you need the Manual J. [What is a Manual J? → /what-is-a-manual-j]
Do I need a Manual S?
If your building department asks for one, yes, and more of them are asking. The residential code (IRC M1401.3) says heating and cooling equipment has to be sized per ACCA Manual S, based on the Manual J loads. A Manual J tells you how much heating and cooling the house needs. A Manual S proves the specific unit you picked can deliver it at your local design conditions, because a "3-ton" unit doesn't always deliver 3 tons. If your permit mentions equipment selection, AHRI ratings or Manual S, you need one. It's $89, or $279 bundled with a REScheck and Manual J. [What is a Manual S? → /what-is-a-manual-s]
What if any of my reports gets rejected?
If the building department asks for a correction on a report we prepared, revisions are included. If someone else did your reports and they got kicked back, we can fix that too.
Does my state use REScheck?
Most states that follow the IECC accept REScheck, but the code year varies by state and sometimes by city. California uses Title 24 instead, and Florida uses its own state energy forms. [Find your state → /states-using-reschecks]
Can a homeowner order a REScheck?
Yes. Homeowners, builders, contractors and architects all order from us.
