REScheck Certificate

What is a REScheck Energy Code Compliance Certificate?

A REScheck Energy Code Compliance Certificate is a residential energy compliance report used to demonstrate that a home or residential project meets applicable energy code requirements established by the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC).

​

Many building departments require REScheck documentation during the residential permit approval process for:

  • New single-family homes

  • Townhomes

  • Residential additions

  • Renovation and alteration projects

​

The REScheck report evaluates the building envelope components of a project, including insulation levels, windows, doors, wall assemblies, roof assemblies, and foundation details to verify compliance with applicable residential energy code standards.
