Pearl Certification is delighted to announce a new competitive differentiator to support Pearl Network Contractors’ businesses — the Electrified Home badge! This new certification tool recognizes and rewards homes that are powered solely by electricity.
The Home Electrification Growing Trend
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) aims to incentivize and drive demand for home electrification through the High Efficiency Electrified Homes rebate program. As more and more homeowners seek home electrification, Pearl’s Electrified Home badge provides them with a roadmap.
Badges of Recognition
A Pearl Certification recognizes a high-performing home, but a badge signifies that a home excels in a particular area. Pearl has long recognized solar-powered homes with the Solar Badge, but now Pearl celebrates all-electric homes with the Electrified Home badge.
"The electrification of homes has become an important issue for homeowners and policymakers,” said Robin LeBaron, president and co-founder of Pearl Certification.
“Pearl’s new Electrified Home badge is designed to support the efforts of homeowners, contractors, and builders who are interested in electrifying buildings. The badge will verify that the home has been fully electrified. By showcasing the many benefits of home electrification, including healthy indoor air, and comfortable, consistent room temperatures, the Pearl Electrified Home badge will increase an electrified home’s sale price.”
Pearl’s Electrified Home badge communicates to lenders, appraisers, and future homebuyers that the home is unique and deserves a premium price tag. The Solar Badge and the Electrified Home badge appear in Pearl Certification Reports and in the homeowner’s Green Door account.
