HOUSERATER WEB

Track projects & progress

HouseRater Web is the central hub of all your energy rating data. Users can access stored site visits, photos, and data points from any web browser or location with an internet connection. HouseRater Web works in real time with HouseRater Mobile’s auto data-sync feature, so your office staff has data from field raters immediately after synchronizing.

Exchange & store modeling information

HouseRater Web integrates with industry-leading energy modeling engines from Ekotrope, REM/Rate, and the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

HouseRater Web’s modeling integration begins with an XML file exchange that cuts data entry by 90% vs. using modeling software alone. The HouseRater team and their partners continue the work on complete end-to-end integration solutions that save time and streamline processes for RESNET Providers and Raters.

Ekotrope
Ekotrope RATER is the most widely used HERS Rating software in the US and leverages NASA-developed technology to measure new and used homes’ energy performance.

REM/Rate™
REM/Rate is residential energy modeling software that provides rigorous solutions for HERS Rating, utility/green program analysis, and automated compliance verification with International Energy Conservation Codes.

NREL EnergyPlus®
NREL EnergyPlus is the open-source gold standard of energy modeling engines that requires a console-based interface to use. HouseRater Web’s integration will provide the consolidated energy rating data and intuitive interface to make the engine user-friendly.*

*EnergyPlus produces Energy Rating Index (ERI) scores, but not HERS Ratings.

Make reporting & reviews easier

Creates client consulting reports

HouseRater Web allows Raters to access and analyze over 1,200 data points for each house, and use that information to generate understandable and timely consulting reports for their clients. These building consulting reports can be customized to include:

HERS Rating results
Compliance with local energy codes
Calculated energy savings
Quality Control and process improvement suggestions
Inspection and verification photos
Compliance with energy programs such as ENERGY STAR® and LEED®

HouseRater Web also supports advanced ENERGY STAR checklists with file documentation and custom national or regional program checklists.

The data collected from field inspections and energy modeling is combined in HouseRater Web to provide a clear snapshot of overall building performance. Raters, Builders, and Utilities can use this data to track performance and identify trends. Users can create and store custom exports, or can easily export their data using HouseRater Web’s pre-designed templates.

Export options include:

Energy program status tracking
Tracking utility rebate programs from enrollment to completion
Generating program compliance certificates
Quality Control and process improvement suggestions
