Pearl Certification drives residential energy efficiency, benefiting your state and its inhabitants for years to come.
Did you know that before you request a Pearl Certification, you can see a complete points analysis for the assets you have entered? Using the Pearl Certification Software, navigate to the Pearl Reports & Certification section in the left-hand dropdown menu. Select the option: Review Points at the bottom of the list.
On the next screen, make sure you have provided sufficient details about the equipment you are certifying. For example, the percentage of the home that is heated and cooled by the equipment being certified is required to achieve a Silver Pearl Certification. Sometimes this is as simple as entering 100 for one system but often gets overlooked. Once you’ve confirmed this information, each asset you have entered will be listed with the allocation of points for that asset.
You can use this as guidance to help you achieve the highest level of certification for your homeowner. In addition, there is a breakdown of how many points each particular asset is or isn’t achieving, along with the total potential points for that asset. For example, in order to achieve maximum points for insulation, an area value is needed.
The points analysis in the Pearl Certification Software shows the Weighted Target Points awarded for the assets entered in the top section. If key information, such as the percentage of the home that is heated and cooled by the equipments, is omitted, then the certification points are not weighted, thereby limiting the level of certification that can be achieved.
The bottom section shows assets that have not been reported for that particular home but are eligible for earning points toward home certification.
