Field verification

HERS Testing

HERS testing works best when it is coordinated early enough for the field team to prepare for it. Strata helps keep the testing scope tied to the approved compliance path and the actual construction schedule.

HERS testing and verification support that keeps the approved compliance path on track.

Strata coordinates HERS testing with builders, installers, and field teams so verification happens at the right time and does not become a scramble at the end of the job.

Builders, contractors, and project teams that need HERS verification scheduled clearly and carried through without last-minute confusion.

What HERS Testing includes.

These are the core pieces of the scope, written as practical deliverables rather than a general consulting promise.

  • Testing coordination with the project team
  • Field communication with installers
  • Reporting for final approval and closeout

What improves when this scope is handled early.

The outcomes are practical: fewer missed requirements, cleaner handoffs, and less pressure near review or closeout.

Testing that happens on time

Clearer field communication before verification

Less closeout risk caused by missed coordination

How the work moves.

The process keeps review, documentation, and field follow-through connected without adding a separate coordination layer.

Step 1

Review the project constraints

Plans, property type, timing, and performance goals are reviewed first so the compliance path starts with the right assumptions.

Step 2

Shape the compliance strategy

Title 24, CALGreen, and field requirements are translated into a scope the project team can actually carry through design and construction.

Step 3

Deliver permit-ready documentation

Reports, notes, and supporting documents are prepared for city review and for smoother coordination inside the project team.

Step 4

Support field verification

Testing and inspection are coordinated so the approved path carries through installation, verification, and final closeout.

HERS Testing FAQs.

Short answers for California owners, builders, designers, and contractors planning this scope.

When is HERS testing required?

HERS testing is required when the Title 24 compliance path includes field-verified measures such as duct testing, airflow, refrigerant charge, ventilation, or other listed measures.

Who should schedule HERS testing?

The contractor or project lead should coordinate testing when the relevant systems are installed, accessible, and ready to verify.

Can Strata coordinate HERS with Title 24 documents?

Yes. Strata can align the HERS scope with the energy report so the field verification matches what was submitted for permit.
